Mateos Leads Into Aygun; Lin Has a Plan For the Final Table
Level 9
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Aksel Aygun raised to 2,400 in middle position as action folded to Ren Lin in the small blind, who only had around 3,000 remaining.
"Ay, ay, ay, mamma mia. I don't want to go home. Fold until the final table," Lin said as he eventually tossed his cards away. Adrian Mateos, though, called in the big blind.
Both players checked the 5♥7♣9♣ flop before Mateos led out for 2,300 on the 4♥ turn. Aygun called, then faced another bet of 4,500 on the 2♣ river.
Aygun folded this time and Mateos folded.
"EPT no good for me. I'm going home," Lin added after the hand.
