Steven Zhou Eliminated in 4th Place (A$132,000)
Steven Zhou raised to 600,000 on the button and was three-bet to 1,500,000 by Kahle Burns in the small blind. Zhou called.
The flop came 6♦J♣10♦ and Burns checked to Zhou, who shoved for 6,400,000.
Burns didn't like it, but announced he probably wasn't folding.
Eventually, Burns did put in a call and a showdown was held.
Kahle Burns: K♥10♣
Steven Zhou: Q♥J♥
Burns had one foot out the door after the 3♠ fell on the turn as he was drawing to just five outs.
It wasn't Burns' time to exit, however, as the K♦ river improved him to an unlikely two pair to award him the double up and leave Zhou short.
After being left with just 75,000 from the hand prior, Zhou was all in and at risk against Kahle Burns.
Steven Zhou: 8♦5♦
Kahle Burns: J♣3♣
Zhou needed to start his spin-up right now if he wanted to get back into contention, but instead he was left on the sidelines as the 8♥6♠J♦10♥9♦ runout meant he was eliminated.
