Zheng Smacks the Turn to Double Through Bezhanyan
Level 25
: Blinds 50,000/125,000, 125,000 ante
Aren Bezhanyan raised on the button, and Xiaosheng Zheng three-bet from the small blind to 1,700,000, leaving himself with 75,000 behind. Bezhanyan jammed, and Zheng called off the rest of his chips.
Xiaosheng Zheng: K♠Q♠
Aren Bezhanyan: A♣Q♦
Zheng was dominated and looked set to become the next player to head to the rail.
The 8♥8♠4♦ flop offered Zheng no assistance, but the K♥ turn was exactly what he needed to take the lead.
The 10♦ river changed nothing, and Zheng secured the double-up with top pair at Bezhanyan's expense.
