Zhang on the Rise
Level 31
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Spencer Champlin opened from the button to 500,000 with K♦9♥ and was called by Tommy Zhang in the big blind with A♥4♥.
The flop came out Q♥A♠8♣ and Zhang led out for 500,000 and was called by Champlin to see the 7♠ on the turn.
Zhang then decided to slow down and he checked to Champlin, who bet 1,700,000 and Zhang called.
On the river 4♠, Zhang improved to two-pair and he checked once more, but Champlin quickly checked back. Zhang tabled his winning hand and the pot was pushed his way to increase his stack once again.
