Career Highlights

Lee's most notable results came during the Super Cup Busan 2025 festival. On June 3, he won the "NIGHT GAME: NLH TURBO 2" event, earning $2,500. The following day, he finished 9th in the "MYSTERY BOUNTY" event for $4,045, and later that same day he won another turbo event—the "NIGHT GAME: NLH TURBO 3"—again taking $2,500. These two victories and one final-table appearance highlight his strong performance during that series.

Notable Hands

During the 2025 Taiwan Millions Tournament (likely a separate event), Lee was involved in a dramatic hand. Holding K♣K♦ against an opponent's A♠A♣, he faced elimination but flopped a king and improved to a full house on the turn, doubling up and sending his opponent to a short stack. The hand was reported in the tournament live updates as "the worst Hold'em cooler" turned in his favor.
