Hesse Chips Up as Zhang Hits Bump in the Road
Level 14
: Blinds 2,500/5,000, 5,000 ante
There was over 80,000 in the middle on the board of 9♣2♠8♠10♠ in a pot between Stephen Hesse in the hijack position and Haixia Zhang on the button.
Hesse chose to bet 40,000 on the turn. Zhang mulled over her decision and called to send them to a river.
The 10♦ river led to a big bet of 175,000 from Hesse. Zhang played a time chip as she was in the tank and even went as far as cutting out the amount of chips to call, but thought better of it as she folded to award the pot to Hesse.
