A very short-stacked Jonathan Lin, member of PokerStars Team Asia Pro, has just been eliminated from the tournament by fellow Team Asia Pro Dan Schreiber -- the result of an action-heavy preflop battle.

Action folded around the table to Darkhan Botabayev in the cutoff, who made it 12,000 to go. Next to act, Roel Pijpers upped the ante to 34,000 from the button. Action then fell to Schreiber in the small blind, who moved all in for a total of 103,200.

Lin had already committed over half of his stack (4,000) to the big blind, and obligatorily tossed his last 3,000 chips into the mess that had unfolded before him.

Both Botabayev and Pijpers let go of their cards, meaning Schreiber was guaranteed to take down the sidepot and face Lin heads-up for the main.

The cards were then tabled and Schreiber's {K-Diamonds}{Q-Hearts} had Lin's {K-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} crushed. The board panned out {A-Spades}{3-Clubs}{J-Clubs}{K-Spades}{6-Diamonds} and Schreiber's queen kicker played to earn him the rest of the pot, subsequently sending his Team Asia Pro colleague to the rail.

After the hand, Schreiber stacked up just under 170,000 in chips.
