Lin Reclaims Lead, Eliminates Maue
Level 15
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Ren Lin and Leonard Maue got all of the chips in the middle on a board of 6♣5♠K♦K♠. A huge pot was created, but Maue was the one at risk.
Leonard Maue: 8♠7♠
Ren Lin: A♣Kx
Lin was ahead with his trips, but Maue had a plethora of outs with his open-ender and flush draw. However, the 3♦ river was a brick and Lin scooped the pot, elevating his stack to more than five million chips.
Maue's elimination left the field with 15 players left, and they are now spread across two tables.
