The River Saves Lin
Level 5
: 200/400, 50 ante
Katsuhiro Muto and Team PokerStars Pro Celina Lin just got involved in a pot that could've cost the latter a lot more had the river been a different card.
The flop showed 
when we picked up the action and Muto checked to Lin who bet 1,500. Muto did not waste any time check-raising to 3,000 and Lin made the call.
On the turn the 
hit and Muto bet another 3,000, Lin called.
The river completed the board with the 
and Muto checked to Lin who tanked for a bit before checking behind.
Muto let out a deep sigh as he slammed his 
on the table, but his frustrating was unwarranted since Lin mucked her cards. Muto seemed extremely surprised when Lin did not turn over a better hand, and later she explained having flopped two pair.
