Mann Sends Linster Into a Frenzy, But Busts Right After
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Michael Mann opened to 3,000 from the cutoff before Mike Linster three-bet to 11,500 from the big blind. With the action back on Mann, he four-bet jammed for 62,000, and Linster called holding the exact same stack.
Michael Mann: A♠8♠
Mike Linster: Q♥Q♦
Linster was ahead with the queens, but he was unable to fade the over on the A♣10♣2♣ flop, with neither player holding a club. The board ran out 9♥K♠ as Linster was sent to the rail after the stacks were counted down, cursing out about his opponent's play as he lamented his bad luck.
However, Mann's luck would not last forever, as his newfound 127,000 stack was reduced to zero in less than an orbit, with Mario Damiao the recipient after an ace-king versus aces cooler.
