Charles Leroi takes another one out here at Ameristar St. Charles. Hyun Lee out in 4th Place.
Charles Leroi opens to 175k. Hyun Lee raises to 500k. Leroi calls. The flop comes Ac9cJh. The players get all the chips in the middle with Lee at risk. Lee shows ace-queen but he's in bad shape as Leroi's pocket 9s flopped a flush. The turn is the 2d and the river is the Ah. Hyun Lee is our fourth-place finisher colleting $8,174.
