Lee Extends Lead
There have not been all that many flops so far with both players taking it in turns to steal each other��s blinds, or else re-raise from the small blind and take down the pot pre-flop that way.
We got to see a rare hand that played down all the way to the river though, and it was one that saw Je Ho Lee extend his lead.
Lee was on the button and made it 400,000 to go and Sparrow Cheung made the call. Cheung checked the 
flop over to Lee, who fired for 400,000, which Cheung called and the 
came in on the turn.
The action went check, check and the ace repeated with the 
hitting the river. Cheung checked and after thinking it over Lee bet 750,000. Cheung tanked for quite some time before making the call, but could only muck when Lee showed 
for a pair of nines to take the hand and pull further in front.
