Ren Lin Out in Dramatic Fashion Just Three Away From the Bubble
The action started with an open from the player in the hijack to 10,000. Players folded to Ren Lin in the small blind, and he went all in for 79,000. Leo Fernandez was in the big blind and thought for a long time before re-raising all in. Hijack folded.
Ren Lin: 3♠3♣
Leo Fernandez: A♣8♦
Lin was amazed at the action with ace-eight, but that was not the end of the drama and excitement.
The flop came J♠J♥J♦, giving Lin a full house, while Fernandez had six outs to a better one.
The turn was the 3♦, changing nothing despite hitting Lin’s pocket pair.
The dealer then revealed the river 8♣ for the big turnaround, and Lin, who needed a moment to notice what happened, was eliminated. He marveled at the hand but kept up the good mood, wishing his opponent the best of luck before hitting the rail.
