Tom Lee Eliminated By Dan O'Brien

With around 10,000 already in the pot and the board reading [Js8h6d], WPT Ones to Watch Dan O’Brien bets 6,800 from the small blind and Tom Lee raises to 16,800 on the button.  O’Brien thinks a bit before moving all-in, having Lee covered.

Lee, who has around 40,000 behind quickly calls.  O’Brien turns over [6h6c] for a set of sixes.  Lee trails with [9s9d] for a pair of nine.

The turn brings the [10d], which does give Lee an open-ended straight draw, but the [10c] on the river give O’Brien a winning full house and sends him to the rail early in the Day 3 action.

Dan O’Brien – 178,000 (148 BBs)
Tom Lee – eliminated
