Xulong Zhang Eliminated in 16th Place ($7,800)
Level 24
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Action folded to Justin Hotte-Mckinnon in middle position, who raised to 60,000. The button called, and Xulong Zhang moved all in for 265,000 from the small blind. Hotte-Mckinnon called and the button folded. Zhang was in good shape to double up.
Xulong Zhang: A♦J♦
Justin Hotte-Mckinnon: A♥9♥
The 5♥2♥Q♣ flop brought a flush draw for Hotte-Mckinnon, giving hope to an otherwise dominated hand. That hope diminished slightly on the J♠ turn, but completed on the 6♥ river, sending Zhang to the payout desk.
