Action crossed back to the feature table with Zilong Zhang betting 1,240,000 with his {j-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. The board read {q-Diamonds}{j-Hearts}{j-Spades}{8-Clubs}{3-Spades} meaning Zhang had trips. His opponent, Damian Salas, had top pair top kicker with the {a-Spades}{q-Hearts}.

Zhang's bet swelled the pot to the 2,170,000 and Salas was in the tank for over two minutes. The Argentinian got away from his hand and preserved his 2,500,000 stack.
