Juncheng Zheng raised to 3,000 in the hijack and was three-bet by Martin Kabrhel on the button to 6,000. Zheng then came over the top with a four-bet to 30,000 and Kabrhel made the call.
On the 5♦9♥5♥ flop, action went check-check, bringing the 6♦ turn. Zheng moved all in for 70,500 to put Kabrhel at risk, who had slightly less.
After taking some time to think through his decision, Kabrhel ultimately arrived at a fold, questioning whether or not Zheng had ace-king of diamonds.
