Zhou Keeps Firing
Maximilliano Castagnini got the action started with an open to 600 from early position. Guangyu Zhou called from middle position before Daewoong Song came along with a call from the hijack. Sam Snead Sweilem joined with a call on the button, and Joshua Palmer defended his big blind to create a five-handed pot preflop.
The A♣K♦6♠ flop was checked by Palmer. Castagnini continued for 1,000 before Guangyu Zhou made the call. Song and Sweilem folded, but Palmer was not done with the hand and made the call.
The 10♠ turn led to another check from Palmer. Castagnini slowed down with a check on the turn. Zhou took the initiative with a bet of 3,000. Palmer called, while Castagnini folded.
Palmer knuckled a third time on the Q♣ river before Zhou bet 5,500. Palmer surveyed the situation before he mucked his hand as Zhou took down the pot without a showdown.
