Zhang Wins Classic Flip to Leave Karadimos Short
Level 22
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Thomas Karadimos had already shoved fro under the gun and Michael Zhang called all in for 1,260,000 from directly behind to put himself at risk.
Michael Zhang: Q♣Q♦
Thomas Karadimos: A♣K♠
It was a fair fight between two premium hands, but the 10♠8♥4♦7♦9♠ runout kept Zhang's queens best — awarding him the double up and leaving Karadimos with just 375,000 behind.
