Lin Scores a Knockout on Soft Bubble
Level 16
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
With two players seeing a board of A?J?9?A? and about 125,000 already in the middle, a player in the big blind checked and Daguang Lin bet 200,000, enough to put the player in the big blind, who had a bit less, at risk. After taking a minute to weigh his options the big blind made the call.
Big blind: J?8?
Daguang Lin: A?3?
Lin had his opponent drawing dead and took the pot after the incosequential 2? river while his opponent was eliminated just a few spots shy of making the money.
