Lin Takes It on the River
Level 5
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
After gathering 12,000 chips preflop, Yi Lin, under the gun, and Ioannis Taramas, on the button, both checked on the 2♥5♣9♣ flop. Lin then fired 4,500 chips on the 8♦ turn, which Taramas called.
The K♦ river saw Lin up the ante to 6,500, and this garnered a quick fold from his opponent, awarding him the pot.
Meanwhile, PokerStars Ambassador Felix Schneiders, better known as "xflixx", is sitting on just over half a starting stack.
