Xiao Loses Pot; Recovers the Chips With Profit
Level 18
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
In the last hand before the break, chip leader Yao Xiao bet the 10♥9♥5♦K♣ turn for 375,000 and folded to a shove by Jhon Tanaka.
When they returned to the action, Tanaka limped and then folded when Xiao raised to 350,000 on the button and Ken Lin defended the big blind. Lin check-called for 300,000 on the A♣9♣2♠ flop before they checked the 4♣ turn. On the 6♣ river, Lin check-called another 400,000 and mucked when Xiao tabled Q♣Q♠ for a flush.
