Crane Flips Against Zhao
Level 20
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Gang Zhao opened the action with a raise to 32,000 from middle position, and Sebastian Crane responded with a three-bet to 102,000 from the cutoff. Zhao paused for a moment before shoving all in, covering Crane, who snap-called to take it to a showdown.
Sebastian Crane: A♦K♦
Gang Zhao: Q♠Q♦
Crane connected right away on the 10♥K♥10♠ flop, taking the lead with kings. The 10♣ on the turn improved him to a full house, tens over kings, leaving Zhao in bad shape. The 6♦ river changed nothing, and Crane secured a solid double-up.
