Lin Gets Called Down by the King High of Lapido
Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Ren Lin eagerly got the attention of PokerNews to recount a hand in which one of his own bluffs backfired.
Juan Maceiras Lapido raised under the gun to 5,000, Ren Lin three-bet from the cutoff to 15,000 and Lapido called.
On a flop of 4♦6♦10♠, Lapido check-raised a bet of 13,000 from Lin to 36,000. Lin called.
The turned A♣ checked through to the 10♥ on the river. Lapido bet out for 60,000, then Lin raised to 120,000. Lapido made the call.
Ren Lin: 9♣8♣
Juan Maceiras Lapido: K♦Q♦
Lapido called down the river raise with just king-high and was correct in doing so. After recounting the hand to PokerNews, Lin was so impressed at the call he asked another player at the table to take a photo of both himself and Lapido together.
