Aleksei Istomin
Calvin Lee opened to 50,000 from middle position and was three-bet to 130,000 by Aleksei Istomin in the cutoff. Action folded back to Lee, who announced he was all-in.
Lee quickly called all-in for a little over 500,000 and a showdown was held.
Aleksei Istomin: Q Q
Calvin Lee: A Q
Istomin was in good shape to double up, but the A 8 J flop paired Lee's ace, leaving Istomin drawing very slim.
"Not like this..." Istomin lamented.
Neither the 7 turn nor 6 river changed anything and Lee scored his second knockout of the final table.
