Lin Gives Howard a Warning
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Ren Lin opened to 60,000 from middle position before Nicholas Howard made it 180,000 on his direct left. Action folded back to Lin and he called.
The Q♥7♦6♥ flop checked through to the 9♦ turn. Lin led out for 225,000 and was called. The 10♥ river then checked through to showdown.
Lin had a pair of tens with his J♣10♣ but Howard had that beat with his KxQx, which was goof for top pair.
"King-queen off? You've no future today," said Lin, prompting a few laughs from the table.
