Okawa: {K-Diamonds}{10-Spades}
Tsoyi: {J-}{J-}

Celina Lin Felted

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Celina Lin
Celina Lin

PokerStars Team Pro Celina Lin had recently lost the majority of her stack and was left with just 3,600 chips, which she moved into the pot from middle position. Hirai Junko three-bet to 9,000 from the button, the blinds got out of the way, and the two players tabled their hands.

Lin: {A-Hearts}{7-Clubs}
Junko: {A-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}

Lin had the preflop advantage with the better ace, but Junko took the lead when the flop fell {6-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{4-Spades} to pair Junko's four, although Lin also picked up an open-ended straight draw. The {6-Spades} on the turn was no help to Lin and neither was the {K-Clubs} river, so Junko took the pot to eliminate Lin.
