Zhang Takes a Big Lead
Level 33
: Blinds 150,000/300,000, 300,000 ante
Honghao Zhang raised to 800,000 from the button and called when Harlan Karnofsky three-bet to 2,100,000 from the big blind. Karnofsky continued for 3,000,000 on the 8♥4♣3♣ flop, and was called. He sized up to 5,000,000 on the 3♦ turn, but snap-folded when Zhang moved all in.
In a limped pot, Karnofsky check-called for 500,000 on the 9♦6♥5♠ flop before the 4♦ turn and 2♠ river checked through to showdown where Karnofsky's 7♥5♦ was best.
On the next deal, Karnofsky raised to 850,000 from the button and was called. However, he conceded the pot after Zhang led out for 700,000 on the 6♠4♣3♥ flop.
