Xixiang Luo raised from middle position and was three-bet by David Benyamine in the hijack. Yueqi Zhu made it four bets to go on the button, which got a fold from Luo and a call from Benyamine.
Benyamine checked on the 7♣2♠K♣ flop and Zhu went all in for his remaining chips. Benyamine called and a showdown was held.
Yueqi Zhu: A♥K♥
David Benyamine: 5♦5♥
Zhu had way the best of it with his pair of kings, but the 5♠ fell on the turn — improving Benyamine to a set of fives and leaving Zhu drawing dead.
An irrelevant 9♦ completed the board and Zhu was eliminated in ninth place.
