Zhang Widens the Gap
Level 35
: Blinds 300,000/600,000, 600,000 ante
Spencer Champlin raised to 1,300,000 with J?9? and was called by Tommy Zhang with K?4?.
The flop came out K?9?5? and Champlin led out for 1,100,000 with his middle pair of nines and Zhang called with his top pair of kings.
The turn is the 4? to further improve Zhang's hand and he checks once more, but this time Champlin decides to check back and they go to the river 3?.
Zhang then led out for 2,400,000 and received a call from Champlin to take down a pot of over 10,000,000 and now has a 2:1 chip lead.
