Zhou Straightens Devereux Out
Level 17
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Yinan Zhou opened to 20,000 from middle position and Gareth Devereux shoved for his last 50,000 on the button. It was folded back to Zhou, who called to put Devereux at risk.
Gareth Devereux: A♠K♥
Yinan Zhou: K♦10♦
Devereux got it in well ahead, but the Q♠J♥2♠ flop gave Devereux a real sweat against Zhou's open-ended straight draw.
The 8♣ turn changed nothing, but the 9♥ river filled Zhou's straight — eliminating Devereux from contention.
