Mao Survives on the River
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Heads-up on a flop of 7♣K♥6♥, Renji Mao moved all in for 117,000 from the big blind and Louis Linard called under the gun.
Renji Mao: A♠7♥
Louis Linard: K♦J♥
Linard was ahead with his pair of kings as the 8♦ turn left Mao a card away from elimination. The river, though, was the A♦ and Mao improved to two pair to double up.
