"Lucky River" For Lin

"Beautiful open, under the gun plus one," Ren Lin said as he raised to 800 in early position. Sofien Djaballah in the cutoff, button Virgile Turchi, and big blind Kestutis Jungevicius all called.

"Ay, ay, ay, no respect," Lin said heading to the K♠2♣10♦ flop. All four players checked to the K♣ turn, where Lin bet 2,500. Djaballah and Jungevicius both called, while Turchi got out of the way.

"Drawing dead, my friend," Lin said as the A♣ fell on the river. He then bet 8,500 and Djaballah folded, while Jungevicius called.

"Lucky river," Lin said, turning over 7♣6♣ for a flush. Jungevicius flashed A♥Q♣ before mucking.
