The Defending Champ Shoves Yet Again
Level 3
: 100/200, 25 ante
We caught the action with 19,500 already in the pot and a board reading 
. Tom "hitthehole" Middleton checked from the hijack, Yifan Zheng did the same from the cutoff, and Xing Zhou tossed out a bet of 6,500.
Middleton thought long and hard before folding, and then Zheng dropped in a call. When the 
completed the board on the river, Zheng checked and Zhou moved in his stack of 18,350. Zheng hit the tank for nearly five minutes before a clock was called, and with about 20 seconds remaining, he conceded the hand by sliding his cards to the dealer.
