Lester Edoc is the next player into the seven-digit marker. In true Edoc fashion, it wasn’t one big hand that drove his stack to those heights, instead it was a steady grind earning numerous pots of different sizes. One of the meatier pots he won was against Trygve Leite.
On a flop K♦ 7♠ J♣, utg Edoc bet 30k and Leite called. On the 2♦ turn, Edoc sent another 55k to the pile and Leite called. On the Q♠ river, both checked. Edoc won with K♠ 10♠ top pair over Leite’s 5♦ 7♦ pair.
Another pot he took down saw Leite raise to 35k, Edison Marzan called, Edoc three-bet to 140k and won it with no callers.
