Michael Zhang Eliminated in 9th Place ($110,568)
Blinds 25,000-50,000
Michael Zhang raised to 110,000 and picked up one caller in Mikita Badziakouski in the hijack. On the 
flop, Zhang elected to check and Badziakouski then bet 118,661, an amount Zhang matched. On the 
turn, Zhang check-called for another 439,742.
He then also checked the 
river and Badziakouski bet 1,465,806, which had his opponent covered. That sent Zhang deep into the tank for more than five minutes.
Eventually, Zhang called it off with the 
and had to settle for 9th place, as Badziakouski had the best of it with 
for eights full of jacks.
