Nivel 17
: 2,000/4,000, 1,000 ante
Bernard Lee opened to 11,500 from the small blind and Thomas Fuller made the call, Travis Pearson then moved all in for a total of 94,000 and Bernard Lee went into the tank that the coffee he had previously ordered turned up at the most inopportune moment.
Finally he made the call for most of his stack, Fuller thought for a moment and eventually folded. Both players drew one card.

Lee:
Pearson drew an and Lee then flipped his card - the before fistpumping and shouting "Yes!" loudly. Immediately though, he regained his senses and rushed across to Pearson to apologize and shake his hand. Pearson goes out in 9th place, the exact same spot he finished in the 08 event a few days ago.
