Shin Cracks a Set to Double; Paredes Picks Off Lapka
Level 19
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Byung Shin and Yang Li went to a flop of J?10?9? where Shin moved all in for 76,000 from the big blind. Li snap-called in early position.
Byung Shin: K?5? 
Yang Li: J?J?
Li showed down top set, while Shin had straight and flush draws. The Q? turn completed both of his draws to give him the lead, while the river was the A? and Shin doubled up.
At the same time at another table, Justin Lapka and Victor Paredes built a pot of around 120,000 in a blind versus blind battle to the river on a board of J?7?5?10?4?. Lapka then bet 190,000 from the big blind.
Paredes took a few minutes before calling with J?4? for two pair, and Lapka flashed just ace-high as Paredes took down the big pot.
"Nitroll," Lapka joked with Paredes after the hand.
