Zhang Early Leader

Level 1 : 50/100, 0 ante

Tom Holke got active right away on his table to show who the captain is, but after picking up a few pots early on he dropped a few chips.

Aleksandar Tomovic bet 2,000 into a pot of 3,500 on the heads-up flop of {A-Clubs}{K-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} and forced a fold from his sole opponent.

The early chip leader over on table five appears to be Ji Zhang, who already built his stack by 50%.
