. Gerber checks and Lee bets $200,000. Gerber immediately pops to $500,000 and Lee makes the call. The turn is the 6
and Gerber moves all-in, putting Lee to a decision for his tournament life.
Lee tanks for a good five minutes, standing and pacing and trying to figure out his move. After an agonizing deliberation he makes the call, shoving his stack into the middle and turning up 5

hits the river it's official; Adam Gerber is USPC Champ!
For the win, Gerber takes home the $606,095 first prize, as well as a gold bracelet and a Rolex watch. Louis Lee earns $318,180 for second place. Congratulations to both finalists!
