Fold on the Flop for the Team Pro
Level 6
: 200/500, 500 ante
Celina Lin is in the field, but she is off to a rough start since she is down to 13,500. In her latest pot, she was three-way in a 
flop, and she called a bet at 10,000 from a player, with 13,300 already in the pot.
The third player in the hand raised all in, and he made both players fold. Lin thought about it for some time, asked if she has the option of a re-entry, and she got a confirmation she still folded. She said "nice bluff" to her opponent, prompting him to open his cards, but he didn't.
