Lin Doubles Up Kim
Level 9
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Ren Lin raised to 25,000 from the hijack and called the subsequent three-bet of 65,000 by cutoff Gab Yong Kim. The pair went to the flop of 7♥10♥2♦, where Lin check-called the 60,000 continuation-bet of Kim.
Both players then checked on the 7♦ turn before the K♥ river appeared. Lin enquired after his opponents' stack before putting in a pile of T-100,000 chips. Kim slammed in his final 316,000 chips as a call and Lin turned over 7♠5♠ for trip sevens.
However, Kim was playing a flush with his Q♥9♥ and raked in a big double-up, as he almost returned to the starting stack.
