“Trading in the business and firesuit attire for some #WSOP action 💯,” Lee said in a Facebook post. “Here in Vegas going all in and collecting chips! #PLRFunnyCar #Poker #Chips #worldseriesofpoker.”
Like drag racing, each person, who is competing in a poker event has to pay an entry fee to participate. Sometimes, that could be several hundred dollars to several thousand dollars.
Lee did not travel across the country to participate at the NHRA New England Nationals at New England Dragway this past weekend. He is expected to be back on the series, as he is presently on the entry list for the NHRA Thunder Valley Nationals at Bristol Dragway in Bristol, Tennessee from June 17th through June 19th.
