Jakovljevic Leads Into Zhao
Level 24
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Cheng Zhao raised to 60,000 from the hijack and Dejan Jakovljevic defended his big blind. Zhao then continuation-bet for 60,000 on the 4♦5♣9♦ flop and Jakovljevic check-called.
The turn came the 4♠ and saw Jakovljevic lead out for 70,000. Zhao was undeterred, however, and stuck around with a call.
On the A♣ river, both players checked in quick succession. Jakovljevic showed 7♠6♣ for a missed draw, while Zhao tabled the winner with his A♦5♥.
