Zhou Chips up at Mao's Expense
Level 14
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Quan Zhou opened to 45,000 on the button with 9♠9♥ and Renji Mao defended his big bling with 9♣8♠.
Both players checked on the 4♦10♠J♦ flop and A♣ turn and the 5♥ completed the board.
Mao thought a while about bluffing, but eventually decided to check and Zhou checked behind with his nines and was awarded the pot.
