Paul Lee will always remember the 2007 Five Diamond Classic at Bellagio as the tournament where he got over the hump. With reported earnings of somewhere around $100,000 prior to this month, Lee will come away from the WPT Championship event tonight with at least $309,405 (sixth place money) today. Considering Lee's enormous chip lead, it might actually not be possible to finish as low as sixth place and we are sure his sights are set on the nearly $4M first prize.
This is Paul Lee's third final table at this year's Five Star Classic. Back on April 8th, he won the $2,000 no limit hold'em event and cashed for $206,795. A few days later he made the final table of the $5,000 no limit tournament and took home another $28K. Not a bad month up to that point but clearly today will be it's high point with a first prize of $3,970,415 looming.
With 11M+ chips, Paul Lee will sit down at the final table with over 36% of the chips in play.
