Man's "Lucky Day" Continues

David Salituro

Level 16 : Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante

Sheng Zheng, who began the day in the top 10 on the leaderboard, was down to around 110,000 when he moved all in from under the gun and Ka Wai Man had him at risk in early position.

Sheng Zheng: A?J?
Ka Wai Man: 8?8?

Zheng was racing for his tournament life against Man's pair, but today just happens to be Man's day and he spiked the 8? right away to make a set, followed by the 7?Q?. The rest of the board came 3?5? and Man picked up another pot and sent Zheng to the rail.

"Lucky day, mate," a tablemate told Man, who moved up around 700,000 after starting with less than 200,000.

Jamie Walden, Brandon Sheils, Lee French, and Robert Bickley were also recently eliminated.
