Eelis Pärssinen

With 9,000 chips in the pot on a flop of 10K7, Eelis Parssinen got his remaining stack of around 16,000 into the pot against Erick Lindgren.

Eelis Parssinen: AJ98 All in
Erick Lindgren: A776

Parssinen had a multiple straight draws but was drawing dead by the time the 10 hit the turn as Lindgren improved to a full house. A meaningless 2 completed the board and Parssinen knuckled the felt before he vacated the tournament area.

The flop came 647 which Lindgren checked, Zhou bet 7,000, and only Lindgren called.

On the 3 turn, Lindgren check-folded after Zhou fired a bet of 25,000.

Ren Lin
Ren Lin

Ren Lin, in the small blind, raised to 2,100 and Jim Collopy, in the big blind, called.

Lin bet the pot for 4,200 on the 510J flop. Collopy called.

The 4 turn saw Lin bet pot for a second time. Collopy put in the 12,600 to make the call.

The 6 river saw Lin empty the clip, betting another pot-sized bet of 37,800. Collopy finally elected to muck.

Lin offered to show his cards to the table for $100, but no one was willing to pay such a high price point. "$80?" Lin negotiated before Bryce Yockey talked him down to $20.

Lin accepted the offer and showed 9863. Yockey reached for his wallet only to find he was five dollars short. Lin took the cash payment of $15 and Yockey promised him the rest later.
