Lin Gets a Four-Bet Bluff Through

Calum Grant

Level 6 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Ren Lin opened to 8,000 from under the gun before Justin Saliba made it 22,000 on his direct left. The action folded back to Lin, who four-bet to 50,000. Saliba sighed and returned his hand to the dealer.

Lin then proudly tabled A♦8♣ to the amusement of the rest of the table, while Saliba appeared not too pleased.

Level 6 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Michael Jozoff raised to 8,000 in the cutoff and was called by Masato Yokosawa on the button and Chris Brewer and Frank Funaro in the blinds.

The flop rolled out 9♦2♣8♥ and action checked around to Yokosawa who bet 13,000 which only Jozoff called.

Jozoff took the betting lead on the 8♦ to the tune of 16,000 and Yokosawa called.

On the river J♠, Jozoff bet 20,000 and Yokosawa moved all in for 109,000 effective. Jozoff took a look back at his cards before calling to put himself at risk.

Michael Jozoff: J♣10♦ All in
Masato Yokosawa: 9♣8♣

Yokosawa's full house was good for the pot as the Japanese streamer took down the sizable pot.

Level 6 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

The exact action was missed but on a flop of 5♦4♠10♦ Alex Foxen had called the 225,000 shove of Norihiro Otani.

Norihiro Otani: A♦K♦ All in
Alex Foxen: 5♠5♣

The Q♣ turn and 8♥ river were safe for Foxen's set. After this hand, Foxen had become one of the current tournament chip leaders.
