Chen An Lin Eliminated in 8th Place (A$175,000)

In a limped battle of the blinds the flop on the outer table showed and Ben Richardson bet 55,000, which Chen An Lin called. On the turn, Richardson made it 130,000 to go and Lin called once more before the river completed the board. Richardson's third bet was worth 300,000 and Lin reluctantly called, then mucked when the Aussie flipped over for kings and sevens.

The next hand, Chul-Hyon Park raised to 125,000 and Lin shoved the small blind to force a fold.

Right after, it was Richardson that raised to 105,000 first to act and Lin moved all in for the second hand in a row. Richardson snap-called and both players were about to table their cards before realizing that the feature table was still in a hand. Once that was finished, the cards were indeed turned over and Richardson's rail started cheering.

After the flop, some "ohhhh's" followed from the rail as Lin had picked up a straight draw. The turn gave him some more outs with a king to double and a ten to chop. However, the on the river failed to improve Lin and he was eliminated in 8th place for A$175,000.

All remaining seven players will now bag up their chips and bag for tonight, the live-streamed table will take place on Sunday February 4th, 2018. A recap of today's action is to follow.
