Lin Doubles Amidst Table Antics
Level 17
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Tom Vogelsang raised to 40,000 on the button. Ren Lin then committed his last 95,000 in the small blind.
"No snap-call please, please tank and call," Lin instructed Vogelsang. He would not listen, however, and put in an instant call.
Ren Lin: Q♦10♦ 
Tom Vogelsang: 8♦5♣
Both players flopped a pair on 8♠10♣A♣, but Lin's pair of tens remained the best hand on the 3♦K♣ runout.
"You are my love," Lin declared to Vogelsang as he raked in his double-up.
"Why are you so lucky?" Vogelsang asked in response.
"Because Lady Gaga," Lin explained.
