Peter Lin Bubbles Day 1d

Level 18 : Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Peter Lin
Peter Lin

Peter Lin moved all in from under the gun for 66,000 and action folded around to George Mitri in the big blind.

Lin began trying to convince Mitri not the call the extra 2.5 big blinds. "Remember the water," said Lin, referring to a $3.50 bottle of water that he had bought for Mitri earlier in the night as the two played side by side.

Players at the table had a laugh before Mitri apologized to Lin as he tossed in the call, and the hands were turned up.

Peter Lin: 99 All in
George Mitri: J6

The table shouted as a jack appeared in the window of the J65 flop, along with a six to give Mitri two pair. Lin could not catch the K turn or Q river, exiting the tournament on the money bubble.

Pat Rivers Klinger

Level 17 : Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Joseph Pat
Joseph Pat

Action was heads up to the A8J flop, where Daniel Klinger fired 20,000 into the middle.

Joseph Pat raised enough to put Klinger all in, and after a few moments, the call was made.

Daniel Klinger: A6 All in
Joseph Pat: Q10

Klinger was in front with top pair, needing to fade Pat's straight draw. The 5 turn was a blank, but the K river elicited a reaction from the table as Klinger made Broadway to eliminate Klinger.
