Lin Slips Down Further

Frank Visser

Level 24 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Santhosh Suvarna limped in with A♠9♥ from the button and Ren Lin checked his big blind with 9♣7♠. Lin then led for 500,000 chips on the 5♠2♥Q♠ flop and Suvarna made a swift call.

Lin upped his sizing to 1,500,000 on the 8♠ turn, but Suvarna was not going anywhere with his nut flush draw and called again. The A♥ river did not stop Lin from completing his triple barrel, as he forwarded 4,500,000 chips to the middle of the table.

Suvarna thought it over for a good while but eventually made the correct call with his top pair. Lin showed his bluff and the big pot was shipped Suvarna's way.

Santhosh Suvarna limped in from the button with J♥9♣, and Ren Lin checked his Q♦3♣ in the big blind. Lin then check-called Suvarna's 500,000 bet on the 10♥K♠10♠ flop before both players checked the 8♠ turn.

The 7♥ river then completed the board and Lin checked to Suvarna again. The Indian player made a big bet of 1,800,000 chips with his straight and Lin let his queen-high go, granting another pot to his opponent.

Ren Lin raised his button to 900,000 with Q♠9♦ and Santhosh Suvarna defended the big blind with 5♥3♥.

The 6♥ river was also knuckled down, and Suvarna's bottom pair won at showdown.

Level 24 : Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Daniel Dvoress limped in from the small blind with J♣8♣ before Ren Lin raised 1,200,000 from the big blind with 6♦5♦. Dvoress made the call and a flop of J♠7♠6♠ found its way to the table.

Dvoress checked his top pair and Lin bet 700,000 chips with his bottom one. Dvoress called and the 9♦ hit the turn, which both players checked.

The 6♥ river brought Lin trips, but it was Dvoress who bet out for a hefty 2,800,000 chips. Lin rechecked his cards and took a moment before putting Dvoress at risk with a virtual all-in for 6,100,000 chips.

Dvoress looked visibly distraught with the situation he found himself in and spent the majority of his time bank extensions while deep in the tank.

After a few minutes, he came up with a call and saw the bad news when Lin tabled his hands. Dvoress' top pair was no good and he exited in third place, just missing out on his second heads up of the week.

Level 23 : Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante

Santhosh Suvarna raised to 700,000 on the button with A♠A♥. Daniel Dvoress folded his small blind before Ren Lin called with A♦5♥ in the big blind.

Lin then check-called Suvarna's 500,000 continuation-bet on the J♠7♥8♠ flop and checked again on the 3♣ turn. Suvarna sneakily checked behind his overpair and 4♥ river completed the board.

Suvarna put 1,700,000 chips in the pot after a third check from Lin, who threw in his time bank cards to think the situation over. Ultimately, though, he made the right fold and let his hand go.
