Zhang Raises River

Weiyi Zhang took over the lead in this final heat, thanks to a bluff-raise on the river.

In the 500/1,000-level Timothy Adams raised to 2,200 holding {K-Hearts}{Q-Clubs}. Zhang threw in a three-bet to 6,500 with {J-Diamonds}{J-Spades}, Adams made the call.

The flop brought {A-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{4-Spades} and was checked through. Zhang checked again on the {K-Spades}-turn. Adams paired his king and put in a bet of 6,750. Zhang called.

The river was the {10-Diamonds} and Zhang checked a third time. Adams fired a small bet of 4,500 into the 26,700-pot. Zhang put down the hammer with a check-raise to 15,550. Adams gave it a thought, but decided to fold.
