Zhang Joins Million-Chip Club After Yumiaco Bust

Kirk Brown
Kirk Brown
Level 19 : 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante

Jose Yumiaco moved all in preflop for 165,000 and action folded around to Borui Zhang who went into the tank for a good while before he decided to make the call to put him at risk.

Jose Yumiaco: 10♠10♥
Borui Zhang: A♣10♦

Yumiaco was in good shape to double up in this spot, but the flop of 7♣5♦A♠ was a gut punch as Zhang hit one of the three aces left in the deck to take the lead. The runout of 9♥7♠ changed nothing and Yumiaco was eliminated while Zhang chipped up to 1,100,000.
