Level 17
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Yi Lin raised to 12,000 from under the gun, a player in middle position called and Elias Suhonen three-bet jammed for 36,000 from the button. Xiaohu Liu cold called from the small blind. Lin moved all in for 256,000 and both the player in middle position and Liu folded.
Elias Suhonen: A♠K♦ 
Yi Lin: 6♣6♦
Suhonen was going to need some help and that's exactly what he got on the 9♥A♥5♦ flop. The A♦ turn and the J♦ river improved Suhonen to trips and he was shipped this crucial pot.
