Sokolovsky Takes Out Zhu

Level 14 : Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante

Alexander Sokolovsky raised to 16,000 from the small blind and Yueqi Zhu defended the big blind with a call.

The flop hit 794. Sokolovsky bet 25,000 and Zhu called again.

On the 3 turn, Sokolovsky fired 37,000 chips at the pot. Zhu studied for awhile, then raised all in. Sokolovsky quickly called.

Yueqi Zhu: A2xAll in
Alexander Sokolovsky: KJ

Zhu had the nut-flush draw, but Sokolovsky had already turned a king-high flush and just needed to fade the river. The 8 is what landed and Zhu's tournament was over.
