Zhanpeng Doesn't Realise He Doubles
Level 11
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Nikita Kuznetsov opened to 6,500 from the cutoff and was called by Ma Zhanpeng from the big blind.
Zhanpeng check-jammed for 18,000 after his opponent bet the 9♣8♦6♣ flop. Kuznetsov called.
Ma Zhanpeng: 9x7x
Nikita Kuznetsov: Q♥10♠
Zhanpeng had top pair and held out to double following the 3♦ turn and 10♣ river. However, Zhanpeng began leaving his seat as he thought the ten gave Kuznetsov a better pair, not realizing he had improved to a straight. The table informed him he had won, and he sat back down.
