Zhu Forces Espholm to Fold on River
Level 25
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
The pot was about 350,000 when the flop came J♥3♣J♦. Johan Espholm, first to act from the cutoff, led out with a 100,000 bet, and Hengtao Zhu on the button called.
The turn brought the Q♣, and Espholm check-called Zhu’s 400,000 bet.
When the 10♣ hit the river, Espholm checked again, but Zhu fired 700,000 after using one time bank card. Espholm thought it over but eventually let his hand go, conceding the pot to Zhu.
