Hu Pulls Ahead on the River to Hit a Million
Level 18
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Carlos Garcia was already all in with a short stack from the button as Jinlong Hu and Encheng Zhang built a side pot on a flop of K♦10♥4♦.
Hu then bet 30,000 from under the gun, and Zhang raised to 75,000 in the hijack; Hu called. Zhang bet another 80,000 on the Q♥ turn, and Hu again called.
Both players checked down the 4♣ river, and Zhang showed K♥Q♦ for two pair, but Hu had A♠A♥ for a rivered two pair. Garcia tossed 8♣8♠ into the muck as he made his exit, while Hu scooped the entire pot to hit the 1,000,000-chip milestone.
