Ironically enough, Lin learned to play Texas Hold'em in Texas, while studying abroad in the United States. He began playing micro stakes with friends in various home games and gradually evolved into a serious player.
His best result to date was a 2nd place finish at the 2008 Macau Poker Cup where he netted a USD $12,604 payday. Lin was also featured as both a player and tournament director on the celebrity poker TV show "Let's All In" in Taipei.
While he's not out smashing live cash games in and around Macau, Lin spends his free time reading, playing basketball and traveling the world with his friends.
