Zhang Doubles Into the Lead
Level 24
: 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
The action started with a button raise to 90,000 by Yang Zhang and Bin Sun in the small blind three-bet to 300,000. Zhang eyeballed the stack of Sun and gave it a mere 10 seconds before moving all in for around two million.
Sun asked for a count and splashed in the chips to let the rail jump up from their seats.
Yang Zhang: 
Bin Sun: 
The 
flop gave Zhang a set and he locked up the double and chip lead as soon as the 
appeared on the turn. A meaningless 
on the river completed the board and Zhang merged as the comfortable chip leader with five players remaining.
