Nan Zhang raised all in from the big blind with 1,025,000 chips. Joseph Cutler called from middle position, as did Mikolaj Zawadzki on the button.
The flop 2♦5♣6♥ drew checks, but Zawadzki folded to Cutler's bet when the K♥ hit on the turn.
Nan Zhang: A♠8♣
Joseph Cutler: K♠3♠
The river Q♣ didn't give Zhang anything better than Cutler's pair of kings, and he was out.

Yansong Kou has gone on a total heater in the last handful of minutes.
