Xu From Hero to Zero

Level 17 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Yuan Xu
Yuan Xu

Xuanzhi Zhao was all-in and at risk with K9 against the A8 of Yuan Xu and remained ahead until the 107610 turn. The river was the K and Zhao doubled.

Xu then got it in preflop for 98,000 - just shy of ten big blinds - and was reluctantly called by Weiqiang Shan with the marginally covering stack.

Yuan Xu: A8 All in
Weiqiang Shan: KQ

Xu's ace-eight was ahead against a king ... and history repeated itself on the J423K runout.
