Guoliang Extends Lead
We caught current top dog Wei Guoliang involved in a blind on blind battle with Taiwan��s An Lin. With the flop of Guoliang had led out for a pot sized bet of 11,000 and Lin was in the tank.
Eventually, Lin made the call and the dealer turned over the turn, bringing in the possible diamond flush. Guoliang kept up the pressure and fired a second barrel, this time for 13,000 and Lin gave him a skeptical stare down before making the call.
The landed on the river and Guoliang plonked a stack of blue 5k chips into the middle of the table totaling a bet of 50,000. Being as he only has 25,000 behind this put Lin all-in and he looked less than pleased at this.
Eventually, Lin grudgingly mucked and Guoliang raked in the pot. It��s hard to tell exactly how many chips he has now as the Chinese player has them all stacked up in four giant towers, but we are going to guestimate that it is close to 200,000.
