Matt Vengrin bet 12,000 from the big blind on a flop of 7♦K♣3♥ before Yueqi Zhu potted in the small blind. Vengrin then moved all in for 61,000 and Zhu called.
Matt Vengrin: A♣8♥5♠2♣ 
Yueqi Zhu: A♦K♠7♣2♠
Zhu was ahead with top two pair as the 6♣ turn gave both players the same low. Zhu was poised to take three-quarters until the 9♦ river improved Vengrin to a straight and instead gave him three-quarters of the pot.
"I had everything," Zhu lamented, shaking his head as the pot was split up.
