Vanier Surrenders Massive Pot to Lin
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Ren Lin in the big blind and Michael Vanier on the button had grown the pot to 137,000 when the dealer fanned out 3♦J♦4♦.
Lin fired 30,000 and Vanier calmly called. The turn dropped 7♠ and Lin took his time considering his options, visibly wondering what his next move would be. He finally threw in 75,000 which Vanier instantly called.
Looking perplexed with the call, Lin went into the tank when the river 2♠ was turned over. Counting then shuffling his stack, Lin finally announced "All-in" for 640,000 prompting Vanier to sigh and lean back as he looked at the clock.
With 280,000 behind and only 3 players left to the money, Vanier decided to let go of his hand and concede the massive pot to Lin.
