Queens For Lin
We were lurking by Nick Petrangelo��s table hoping to catch the US High Roller specialist in action as he has an impressive stack of 272,000. While Petrangelo failed to oblige us with any action we caught a hand involving HK$206,000 Single Re-Entry Shot Clock Champion Quan Zhou (who is also at the same table) and Xia Lin.
Pre-flop it was Zhou who opened the action with a raise to 3,700 from middle position and action folded around to Petrangelo on the button.
��How much are you playing there?�� Petrangelo quizzed Zhou, ��You want to gamble?��
Then Petrangelo peeked down at his cards and shook his head sadly.
��No gamble I��m afraid,�� said the US pro, throwing his hand away.
However, small blind Xia Lin seemed game and re-raised to 8,500 and Zhou made the call to take play heads-up to the 
flop.
Lin led for 10,000, Zhou quickly folded and Lin flashed pocket queens before raking in the pot.
