When the 5 hit the river, Lin announced “Pot!” once more and fired 615,000 into the middle. Rodriguez went into the tank, but after a lengthy pause, he tossed in the call.

“Good call!” Lin admitted as he turned over A10102 for just a pair of tens. Rodriguez tabled KKJ9 for top two pair to scoop the pot.
