Gonzales Wakes Up
We caught a blind on blind battle between Martin Gonzales and chip leader Weizhou Zha and discovered that Gonzales is quite the talker.
While we do not know what the Filipino player’s initial open from the small blind was we do know that Zha had re-popped the action to 13,000 and Gonzales had pulled the trigger and moved all-in for 104,500.
“Why so much?” quizzed Zha.
“I’m sleepy and I can go back to bed if I lose,” replied Gonzales glibly.
Gonzales looks pretty awake to us, if a little laid back and after tanking for a good couple of minutes Zha decided to let it go. That seemed to wake Gonzales up a little and he sprang into action stacking up his newly won chips, climbing to 117,500 after the hand while Zha drops a little but is still the frontrunner with a stack of 439,000.
