Lin Pads His Stack Just Before Dinner Break
Level 8
: Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante
Ren Lin raised to 2,400 first to act and was called by Peter Nguyen in the small blind for a heads-up pot.
Nguyen check-called a 1,500 bet from Lin on the 9♣6♥10♦ flop and then both players checked on the 9♦ turn.
The 10♥ river double-paired the board and Nguyen checked once more. Lin asked the dealer to spread the pot and then bet 6,000.
"You have anything, you win," Nguyen said as he folded 8♣8♠ face up for a counterfeited pair.
Lin collected the pot without showing.
