Lin Catches a Double-Up
Level 11
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Chris Brewer opened from the button and Ren Lin pushed his final 385,000 all in. Brewer made the call and all cards were tabled.
Ren Lin: A♠2♠
Chris Brewer: K♥Q♥
Brewer flopped top pair on Q♦10♠J♠, but Lin had obtained a combo draw to still be in contention. The 10♥ turn did nothing for either player and Lin requested a spade going to the river.
His wish was granted when the 7♠ emerged from the deck. Lin made his flush and doubled up to a stack of 40 big blinds.
