Two Pots for Zhang
Level 7
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Lei Yu raised to 8,000 from the hijack and was called by Ivan Zhang and Ami Barer in the blinds. The flop came Q♥Q♣10♦ and Yu continued with a bet of 4,000. Zhang check-raised to 20,000 and Barer quickly folded along with Yu.
A couple of hands later, Zhang made it 8,000 to go in the cutoff and Gary Thompson defended from the big blind. The flop fell Q♠6♥4♣ and both players checked to the 4♦ on the turn.
Thompson led out with a bet of 9,000 and Zhang called to see the 2♠ on the river. Thompson checked this time and Zhang sized up a bet of 52,000. Thompson folded and Zhang dragged in another pot.
