Bernard Lee Takes a Seat
RG Ambassador Bernard Lee has entered the fray in flight B. Perhaps best known for his 13th-place finish in the 2005 WSOP $10,000 Main Event for $400,000, Lee has since made a name for himself both on and off the felt. A tournament specialist, Lee has collected a whopping $2,388,527 in tournament winnings during his career.
Off the felt, Lee has promoted the game through a variety of media. Since September 2005, Lee has written the Sunday poker column for the Boston Herald. In April 2006, Lee joined the ESPN.com Poker website as a regular columnist. Beginning in 2007, Lee has hosted his own poker podcast/radio show, The Bernard Lee Poker Show. Not to mention numerous guest and guest-hosting and commentary appearances across all major poker media outlets.
All this in addition to publishing two books, The Final Table, Volumes I and II (2008).
But the highlight of Lee's work in poker are his charitable endeavors. Lee helps to organize All-In for CP charity poker tournaments to advance medical research and treatment for cerebral palsy. In addition, Lee spearheads the Full House Charity Program, which provides customized gifts for homeless families and children.
As for his performance at the RunGood Poker Series, Lee won the title at the inaugural RGPS Main Event at Downstream in March 2014, something he's keen to repeat this weekend.
