Zhong Doubles Through Wu in Straight Over Straight Cooler
Level 37
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Xuecong Wu limped on the button with 5♦4♦ and Weizheng Zhong checked his option with 10♥9♦.
Both players checked on the 6♦J♠8♠ flop and then Zhong led out for 600,000 with his open-ended straight draw on the 3♥ turn. Wu called, having picked up a lower straight draw.
The 7♦ river was a sick one, as it improved both players to a straight.
Zhong fired 2,000,000 into the middle and Wu quickly went all in. Zhong called all in for 1,700,000 on top with the nuts and scored the massive double up.
