Ace-High Wins for Zhang
Level 23
: Blinds 20,000/40,000, 40,000 ante
Matthew Perez raised from late position to 80,000 only for Zi Long Zhang to three-bet to 250,000 from the button. Perez called.
The flop came 3♦J♣6♦, and Perez check-called Zhang's 165,000 continuation bet. Both players checked the 5♦ turn, and when the 5♣ came on the river, Perez went into the tank for two to three minutes before he announced all in.
This sent Zhang into the tank for some time, and he asked for the count, which was 460,000. He thought some more and made the call, tabling A♣Q♦ for ace-high. Perez turned over Q♣K♣ for king-high, and Zhang was shipped the pot and sent Perez to the rail.
