Nitsche Clips Chao with Top Pair
Level 9
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Dominik Nitsche raised to 18,000 in the hijack and was called by Charles Chao on the button and Quan Zhou in the big blind. The flop came Q♠9♣5♦ and the action checked around to the 9♠ on the turn.
Zhou led out with a bet of 28,000 which Nitsche just called. Chao raised to 75,000 which got a quick fold from Zhou but Nitsche still called. The 6♠ hit the river and both players tapped the table. Nitsche showed A♦Q♦ and Chao conceded the pot.
