Cooler Sees Nishijma Climb the Counts
Level 29
: Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Hiroto Nishijma raised to 300,000 in the hijack, and faced a three-bet to 1,000,000 from Hao Zhang in the cutoff. The action folded back to Nishijma, who moved all in for 2,450,000. That put Zhang deep into the tank, but after a while, he elected to call.
Hiroto Nishijma: A♠A♥
Hao Zhang: A♣K♥
It was the worst-case scenario for Zhang, who had come close to folding.
The 7♣Q♥3♥8♣A♦ board provided no drama, seeing Nishijma double, and Zhang was left with a short stack.
