Runner-Runner Straight Flush Cracks Ren Lin's Pocket Aces
Table Of Contents
The Triton One Cyprus festival has barely got underway, but there's already been a hand that will take some beating for the rest of the series.
WPT Global ambassador Ren Lin found himself on the wrong end of a particularly nasty runout in Event #1: $3,000 QQPK Genesis, watching his pocket aces get cracked by a runner-runner straight flush during the Day 1c flight.
The unlikely winner was Kazakhstan's Bakbergen Absadyk, who managed the great escape to keep his tournament hopes alive.
Fortunately for Lin, the damage was relatively minor, with the Chinese poker star still sitting on a healthy stack after the hand.
