Razinkov Gets the Perfect Start; Zheng Busts

Level 26 : Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Xiaosheng Zheng

Adrian State raised to 100,000 under the gun before Aleksandr Razinkov three-bet to 260,000 from the button. Xiaosheng Zheng four-bet to 1,000,000 from the big blind, which forced State to fold. Razinkov called with just 10,000 behind.

The last of Razinkov's chips got into the middle on the 10♣9♣2♣ flop, with Zheng making the call.

Aleksandr Razinkov: K♣K♥ All in
Xiaosheng Zheng: Q♥Q♦

Razinkov was way out in front with the higher pair and the flush draw. Zheng needed a one-outer queen to send Razinkov to the rail. The 6♣ turn left Zheng drawing dead, as the 5♠ on the river cemented Razinkov's double-up.

Zheng was left with just two big blinds after the hand and was eliminated very soon after.
