Kalev on Fumes as Zhang Hits Huge Draw
Level 26
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Yang Zhang and Petar Kalev had gathered 750,000 chips preflop when the dealer fanned 8♣8♥7♥. Zhang checked from middle position, after which Kalev bet 175,000 in the hijack.
Zhang then raised to 450,000, only to be three-bet all in for 1,485,000 by Kalev. Zhang spent some minutes in the tank before he called off for his tournament life.
Yang Zhang: 6♠5♠ 
Petar Kalev: A♠7♠
Zhang was on a pure draw, which was completed as the 4♣ turn gave him a straight. Kalev still had some full house outs to work with, but the K♥ river was not one of them.
Zhang shipped the gigantic pot, leaving the start-of-day chip leader with less than eight big blinds.
