Lin Spikes a Straight in Three-Way All In
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Michael Russell was already all in for 7,500 from the big blind on a flop of 7?6?5? as Victor Shih raised enough in the small blind to put Yi Lin all in. Lin called for his last 37,400 in early position.
Michael Russell: J?7? 
Yi Lin: 9?6?
Victor Shih: 5?5?
Shih was ahead with his set of fives as the 4? fell on the turn. The river was the 8? and Lin improved to a straight to scoop the pot, earning a double up off Shih while sending Russell to the rail.
