Lau Takes Out Tinney to Burst Bubble
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Ka Kwan Lau and Glen Tinney had gathered a pot of 175,000 preflop. The dealer then fanned the 3♠6♥J♥ flop, which Lau checked to Tinney. Tinney fired a bet of 80,000, to which Lau responded by moving all in.
Tinney's stack of 250,000 was covered by Lau, and he quickly called off to risk becoming the bubble boy.
Glen Tinney: A♥Q♠J♣9♥
Ka Kwan Lau: Q♦6♦5♥4♠
Lau made two pair on the 4♣ turn, which remained the best hand when the river fell the 8♠. Tinney packed his bags in 109th place, and the remaining players were declared to be in the money.
