The action folded to Ren Lin in the small blind, and he limped in. Francisco Benitez then checked his option in the big blind, and the two went off to a flop of 9♣6♥4♣, which they both checked.
The J♥ turn then saw Lin bet 100,000 and Benitez call before Lin made a bigger bet of 325,000 on the 2♥ river. Benitez spent one time bank extension before putting in the calling chips but mucked his hand once he saw Lin table 6♠4♦ for two pair.
Benitez was left with less than seven big blind after this encounter, making him the shortest stack of the tournament.
