Xiang Zhou just became the first player to build a six-figure stack here in Manila and is now the chip leader.

So far, Zhou's day has been marked by two big hands where he flopped two pair.

One saw him take heaps off a player with an open-ended straight draw when he flopped two pair holding {10-}{9-}. The other involved Zhou flopping two pair with {Q-}{9-} and taking all of a player's chips who was in the unfortunate position of having flopped top-pair top-kicker with {a-}{q-}.

Zhou is here in Manila fresh off a fourth-place finish in the Asia Championship of Poker - Platinum Series IX Main Event in Macau this past June and appears to be running pretty good right now.
