Thorel Busts Lin
Level 14
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Ren Lin opened from under the gun to 22,000, leaving a single 500 chip behind. Action folded around to Jean-Noel Thorel who raised, putting Lin all in. Lin said "I am pretty sure you have two overs," before the players flipped their cards.
Ren Lin: 4♠2♠
Jean-Noel Thorel: 10♠10♦
Lin showed first, with Thorel then turning over his pocket tens.
The J♠8♥9♥ flop left Lin still in search of help, but it didn't come on the 5♦ 2♥ runout.
Lin was eliminated with around 16 players remaining; just half of those will make the money.
