Zhang Scores Huge Double, Parmar and Masseuse Still in Action
Level 19
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Action was on the flop on a board of 4♦3♦4♠ and Taran Parmar led with a bet of 345,000. Congya Zhang pushed all in for 1,400,000, sending Parmar into the tank. He had a think then threw in the call. Players flipped their cards.
Congya Zhang: A♥4♥
Taran Parmar: Q♥Q♣
Parmar gestured to the masseuse to stop as he caught a glimpse of Zhang's trips. The turn was the 2♦ and the river was the 7♦. Zhang held and Parmar thought he was eliminated.
"I had to call right?" he asked tablemates.
"Yes, it's a cooler," said another player.
After getting the count, Parmar still had a handful of chips left to play with. "Carry on, carry on...," he said to the masseuse, "I need to relax even more now."
