Kornuth Hits the Flop, Lin Spikes the Turn
Level 21
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Chance Kornuth limped in with Q?8? before Ren Lin, in the big blind, raised to 480,000 holding A?2?.
Kornuth called as they went heads-up to the 3?10?8? flop. Kornuth checked his pair of eights, then called when Lin continued for 350,000.
The A? turn, though, gave Lin back the lead with a pair of aces and he bet another 475,000. Kornuth, peering at Lin from underneath the brim of his hat, again called to see the J? river.
Both players checked as Lin took the pot and increased his stack past 4,000,000.
