Heart Attack Averted

Jerome Solomon
Jerome Solomon
Level 38 : Blinds 600,000/1,200,000, 1,200,000 ante

Chengyue He raised to 12,000,000 from the cutoff. Zheming Zhu, seated to his immediate left, went over the top all in. He made the call with less.

Chengyue He: 4♣4♠All in
Zheming Zhu: J♠J♦

Zhu's bigger pair was in control through the turn K♠6♦6♥Q♥, and then the dealer bobbled the river card, which to many at the table made it look one of the fours He needed for the win.

Alas, the last card was the 5♥, five pip instead of four, and He excited in 40th place.

"I almost had a heart attack," Zhu said with chuckle and a sigh of relief.
