Lin Survives

Level 3 : 150/300, 0 ante

Right before break, we came up on the action with a bet of 2,500 in front of Moon Soo Kim and a flop of {10-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{9-Spades} on the board. Hung Sheng "Shaq" Lin raised to 5,000. After a bit of thought, Kim made it 9,500 which prompted the all in of Lin. Some more thinking followed, along with a call of Kim who had Lin slightly covered.

Lin: {6-Clubs}{8-Clubs}
Kim: {10-Spades}{10-Clubs}

The turn {k-Diamonds} and the river {q-Hearts} came, giving Lin the double up and leaving Kim very short. Lin, the 2011 Asia Player of The Year, is looking to make a big splash here after a relatively slow start to the year, with only one tournament cash so far this year.
