Zhao Forces Zhou Off the Best Hand
Level 27
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Jiaming Zhao opened to 40,000 from under the gun with A♦J♦ and Yiyu Zhou flat-called on the button holding 6♥6♣. They went heads-up to a flop of 9♥2♥2♦ where both players checked to the 3♦ on the turn.
Zhao picked up a flush draw and checked it once again. Zhou tossed in a bet of 45,000 with the current best hand and Zhao check-raised to 140,000. Zhou contemplated for a moment but decided to dump her cards into the muck.
