Level 13 : Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

In the small blind, Patrik Antonius raised to 37,000 after Ren Lin in the big blind bet 12,500.

Lin called to see the flop 2♦Q♦Q♣, where Antonius made a continuation bet of 20,000. Lin called once again, then had a decision after Antonius checked on the turn 8♠.

Check or bet? Lin chose to bet 50,000. Antonius eventually called, then checked again on the river 6♦ where Lin looked at his cards and spread his time banks in front of him. The dealer took three of them before Lin moved all in for approximately 350,000 chips.

Next to him, Antonius utilized a single time bank, and eventually folded.

Player	Chips	Progress
Ren Lin	570,000 113,000	113,000
Patrik Antonius	160,000 105,000	105,000
