Barsegian Gets a Gift from Lin

Ryan Lashmar

Nível 7 : Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

Ren Lin opened to 2,500 from middle position and Eduard Barsegian defended from the big blind.

The flop came A♥7♠3♦ and Barsegian check-called a 1,500 continuation bet from Lin.

Both players checked the J♦ turn leading to the 9♥ river at which point Barsegian bet 4,500.

"Merry Christmas," Lin told his opponent before making the call. Barsegian turned over top pair with A♠4♠ and Lin mucked.
