Zha Retakes Lead and Brings in Bubble

Level 14 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Weizhou Zha
Weizhou Zha

A slew of quick bust outs following Linh Tran’s exit brought the field so close to the bubble the surviving 20 players could almost taste it.

The deep-stacked former frontrunner Weizhou Zha was moved to balance tables shortly after Tran’s elimination and not wanting to be outdone by Alvarado, Zha brought the field to the bubble in a hand that will give his opponent nightmares for years to come.

The unfortunate player left so fast we did not get a chance to get his name, but then he didn’t look like he was in much of a mood to give it had we had a chance to ask.

The man in question limped the cutoff (hoping to induce, as you will see) and after the button folded, the small blind completed and the cutoff got his wish when Weizhou Zha squeezed to 15,000 in total.

The cutoff moved all-in for 36,600 in total and, after the small blind bowed out, Zha tossed in the extras and the hands were turned over.

Cutoff: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Weizhou Zha: {q-Spades}{5-Diamonds}

Of course, poker being the totally unjust game that it is, the window card was the {5-Spades} with the {3-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} completing the flop and bringing an anguished groan from the all-in player. There was no help to be found on the {k-Spades} turn or the {2-Hearts} river and the field was down to 19. Zha stacked up to over 270,000 and now the bubble had arrived the clock was paused with 18-minutes remaining on the level.
