Biao Ding raised to 6,000 from late position and Ren Lin three-bet to 20,000 from the small blind, which Ding called.
Both players checked on the 5♦A♥4♠ flop. The turn came the 4♥ and Lin checked. Ding bet 16,000 and Lin called.
The river was the K♠ and Lin pushed all in for 58,000. Ding frustratedly mucked his hand and Lin scooped the pot.
Niveau: 9
Blinds: 1,500/3,000
Ante: 3,000
In a three-way pot to the flop of A♦J♣8♦, Ren Lin checked his big blind to preflop raiser Gerard Pique under-the-gun.
Pique continued for 6,000 and was called by Byron Kaverman on the button.
Lin then moved all in for about 50,000 which got a quick fold from Pique. Kaverman thought for a bit but then did likewise.
"Super nuts," declared Lin as he gathered his newfound chips.
Meanwhile, Lin's Chinese countryman Biao Ding has just joined the table and Vladimir Korzinin has also jumped back into the tournament.
Nacho Barbero raised to 5,500 from under the gun, Santhosh Suvarna called in middle position, Erik Seidel called on the button and the big blind came along.
The flop came J♣Q♠10♣ and action checked to Seidel, who made it 15,000 to go. Barbero and Suvarna called. All three players then checked it back on the 6♠ turn.
The river came the 10♥ and players checked to Seidel, who sized up to 75,000. Barbero and Suvarna folded and Seidel took down the pot.
Jesse Lonis raised to 5,500 from under the gun, Markkos Ladev called in the small blind and Santhosh Suvarna called in the big blind.
The flop came 2♣8♥K♥ and Ladev made a small lead for 2,500. Suvarna called and Lonis raised to 13,500. Ladev then reraised to 28,000, Suvarna called and Lonis folded.
The turn was the 9♦ and Ladev moved all in. Suvarna called for 65,000 and flipped over 2♦2♥ for a set of deuces. Ladev had A♥10♥ for a flush draw.
The river came the A♣ and Suvarna held to win the pot and double his stack.
After Sean Winter raised to 6,000 on the button, Byron Kaverman three-bet to 23,500 in the small blind.
Winter called to see the A♥Q♦10♠ flop and then called a 10,000 chip bet from Kaverman.
Kaverman bet again on the 3♥ turn, this time for 25,000. Winter moved all in for about 100,000 and Kaverman called, creating a sizeable pot that Winter was about to lose.
Sean Winter: K♥2♥
Byron Kaverman: A♣Q♠
Kaverman's two pair just had to fade flush and gutshot outs for Winter and did that with the 4♦ river.
With the win, Kaverman now cracks the half-million chip mark.
Byron Kaverman was all in preflop for 190,000 against Sean Winter, who had him well covered as players turned their cards.
Byron Kaverman: A♠K♥
Sean Winter: Q♦Q♠
The board ran out K♣5♦2♥8♥6♠ and Kaverman paired his king on the flop to get ahead and double up his stack.
Niveau: 8
Blinds: 1,000/2,500
Ante: 2,500
This is the lesson Ren Lin has just learned the hard way in a recent pot.
In a raised pot with a flop of 9♦4♣3♣, Lin checked his big blind to Winter who bet 11,000. Lin check-raised to 25,000 and Winter called.
On the 10♠ turn, Lin bet 25,000 and was called again to see the 5♥ complete the board.
He then moved all in, covering Winter's remaining 62,000. Winter gathered his chips and called.
Lin proudly declared "two pair" showing 9♥4♥ for top two pair on the flop.
Winter then showed 10♥10♦ for a turned set of tens before playfully declaring to Lin "Adios, Amigo!"
Lin chatted with Winter for a bit before finally declaring those words of wisdom, "don't play with Sean Winter, you'll get hurt."
Just after the hand, Gerard Pique joined the table to the immediate left of Lin.
