Lin Sings his Way to Victory
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Ren Lin opened 5,000 in the hijack and Michael Dwyer defended the big blind.
The dealer fanned a flop of J♦Q♣3♠, and both players checked to the 9♥ turn. Dwyer checked once more and Lin dropped 5,000 across the line as he started to sing and clap.
Dwyer began to sing the song with him as well, and made the call.
The 8♥ completed the board and Dwyer checked. Lin said, "I win, I have nuts," As he tabled A♥Q♠ for a pair of queens ace-kicker.
Dwyer rolled A♠3♥ for a pair of threes and joked, "I don't know what I was hoping for. You sang me into that call."
