"Lady Gaga Never Lose"
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
After Ren Lin check-raised from the blinds on 2♥J♦Q♠, Vlad Darie in the cutoff called to find the 8♥ on the turn.
On this card, Lin moved all in and Darie snap-called for his last 315,000 chips.
Vlad Darie: A♦A♠
Ren Lin: Q♣9♠
The 5♦ came on the river, and Darie doubled up.
A few hands later, Darie opened 60,000 under the gun before Ren Lin jammed 210,000 in the cutoff. The action folded back to Darie and he made the call.
Ren Lin: Q♥Q♣
Vlad Darie: 6♥6♠
"Lady Gaga," said Lin as he rolled his hand face up.
The board ran out 8♠8♦3♦J♠5♠ for Lin's queens to hold as he said, "Lady Gaga never lose."
