Ward Hits the Turn, Zhao Spikes the River For a Bustout
Level 18
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Jared Ward was all in for 200,000 from the button as Jiaming Zhao put him at risk in the hijack.
Jared Ward: J♠J♥
Jiaming Zhao: K♠K♦
Zhao was a big favorite with his two kings as the K♣10♠Q♦ flop gave him top set, but Ward spiked a straight on the 9♠ turn. Zhao began shouting out for help going to the river, which came the Q♣ to give him a full house and send Ward to the rail.
"The cheering worked," a tablemate said to Zhao after the hand.
