No Customers for Zheng, Double for Ho

Alvan Zheng did not get his Day 2 off to a great start and had dropped some of his chips already by the time we caught up with him, and he didn't come back with all that many to start with. Zheng has just earned a little bit of breathing room by taking down the blinds and antes.

It was Shizi Xiao who opened the action with a 5,000 raise from the hi-jack and Zheng peeked down at his cards and moved all-in for 29,100 from one seat over. Shizi looked tempted but eventually decided to wait for a better spot, or a better kicker perhaps, as he flashed Zheng the before folding.

A player who did find a customer for his shove was Chi Chung Ho, who moved all-in from under-the-gun over on table 11, and found a caller in the form of Bin Yan in the cutoff.

Bin Yan:

Yan looked disappointed to be in such bad shape, though it was Ho who was the at-risk player. The case came off the top of the deck as the window card, with the rest of the board running out to give Ho a boat and a double up, and despite making two pair Yin dropped some chips.
