Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante
Chi Zhang
Chi Zhang

On a flop of {K-Clubs}{8-Spades}{2-Spades}, Chi Zhang checked in the big blind, Matt Berkey checked under the gun, and Kristen Bicknell bet 10,000. Zhang called, and Berkey check-raised to 37,000. Bicknell folded, and Zhang called.

The turn was the {A-Diamonds}, and Zhang checked. Berkey moved all in, and Zhang called for his remaining 63,500 chips.

Zhang was ahead with {A-Hearts}{8-Clubs} for two pair, but Berkey had a lot of outs with {K-Spades}{Q-Spades}. The {J-Clubs} river didn't help Berkey, and Zhang doubled up.
