Zhu Pays Off
Level 1
: 100/200, 25 ante
PokerStars Team Pro Yaxi Zhu was just involved in a big hand where we picked up the action on the turn.
The board read 
and Alexandros Kolonias checked from the big blind. Raouf Ibrahim made a bet of 1,500 from first position and Yaxi Zhu called from the button. Kolonias now check raised to 7,000 and Ibrahim folded. Zhu called.
The 
completed the board and Kolonias bet 15,000. Zhu tanked for a long time, but eventually she tossed in three 5,000-chips to call. Kolonias showed 
and Zhu mucked.
Despite losing that sizable pot, Zhu still has a decent stack of just under what she started with.
