Lin Putting On A Show

Maxime Taldir

Level 22 : Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Laughing on every hand, Ren Lin is having fun at the table, even if he was down to 190,000 chips in the big blind.

But when David "Bakes" Baker opened in middle position to 55,000, Lin preferred to call. Then, it didn't take him long to go all in for 135,000 chips on the flop 8?7?9?. Of course, Baker called.

Ren Lin: K?7?
David "Bakes" Baker: A?Q?

Lin was lucky enough to hit a seven on the flop, then a K? on the turn, and a full house on the river with the K?.

Thanks to this hand, he doubled his chips. But he wasn't done yet as he was all in once again a few hands later against Nozomu Shimizu. Action was caught when the two players flipped their cards on the turn on 5?4?Q?K?.

Ren Lin: 5?4?
Nozomu Shimizu: A?A?

More than just winning the hand, Lin cracked aces with his two pairs after the river card 9?. He is back to 460,000 in chips.
