Brink of a Double but a Blade to the Heart
Niveau 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Two healthy stacks had a preflop raising war, putting Frederik Brink at risk and in a classic race against Renji Mao.
Frederik Brink: Q♦Q♣
Renji Mao: A♦K♠
The flop was in favor of Brink, as the dealer peeled, J♦10♥3♣ off the deck. The turn was even better for Brink, as the 9♦ made it so a king on the river was no good, making it that much more painful when the A♥ peeled. Brink said nothing, but frustration was written on his face as he waited to receive his payout slip.
Mao recently won his first gold bracelet in the $800 NLH Deepstack and will be one to watch now that he is amongst the chip leaders.
