The inaugural Texas Poker Open Main Event remains in the books and the honor of being the competition’s first-ever winner comes from Ren Lin, who made $400,000 for his accomplishment.

Lin captured 400 PokerGO Tour points for the triumph, which, when the leader board is upgraded, must put him simply on the exterior of the leading 20 for this season. It is his 3rd profession PokerGO Tour (PGT) title and 38^th profession money. Lin now has more than $11 million in life time live competition profits and $5.3 million on the Tour.

Entering into Monday’s action, Lin wasn’t in excellent shape, holding among the smaller sized stacks of the 15 gamers staying. Yunkyu Song was by far the chip leader with 11.050 million chips, followed by Miguel Use with 4.750 million. For contrast, Lin had simply 1.650 million.

He did double-up early to offer himself some breathing space and was then able to get an uncontested pot worth millions to reach 7.750 million chips. Entering into the nine-handed last table, Ren Lin depended on 2nd location with 7.550 million chips, still just half of Song’s 15.150 million.

Lin busted gamers in 7^th and 5^th location to get up to 11.400 million, however once again, Song was still well ahead. Quickly after four-handed play began, Lin made a substantial relocation, choosing off Song’s bluff on the river to surpass him for the lead, simply hardly.

Tune gained back the lead, however then Lin put the hammer down, out-flopping him with a boat-over-boat to take a huge chip lead. Lin depended on 22.525 million, while Song was up to 7.375 million. Lin ultimately made it to over 30 million and appeared like he was going to run away with the title, however Daniel Moran continued to get rid of Song in 4^th location and Jonathan Tamayo in 3^rd to enter into heads-up play simply somewhat behind Lin, 20.625 million to 23.475 million.

And after that, within minutes, it was all over. Lin raised to 700,000 pre-flop, Moran three-bet to 2.800 million, and Song reacted with another raise to 6.500 million. Undaunted, Moran pushed and Lin called. Moran revealed pocket Tens, however Lin had pocket Jacks– it’s not surprising that they were so excited to get their chips in the pot. Absolutely nothing assisted Moran and Lin tumbled a set for great procedure to remove the Texas Poker Open Main Event.
