Lin Flops a Straight to Crack Saout's Aces
Level 10
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Jianwei Lin opened to 2,500 from the hijack. Antoine Saout in the small blind three-bet and made Lin fold.
In the next hand, Lin raised to 2,500. Saout, on the button, three-bet again to 7,000. This time, however, Lin four-bet to 22,500 and Saout called.
The dealer fanned a flop of Q♦J♣10♦ and Lin continued for 12,000. Saout shoved for 47,000, and Lin snap-called.
Antoine Saout: A♦A♣ 
Jianwei Lin: K♣9♥
Lin had flopped a straight. "Hold," Lin asked as the 8♦ turn opened a flush draw for Saout. The 4♣ river kept Lin's straight in the lead, and Saout was eliminated.
