Zhang Forces Fold from Machon
Level 9
: 15,000/35,000, 35,000 ante
In a three-bet pot between Bartlomiej Machon and Chi Zhang in the small blind, the duo headed to the 
flop and Zhang continued for 160,000. Machon called and did so again for 360,000 on the 
turn. Zhang eventually emptied the clip by firing the 
river for 1.0 million, which covered Machon's remaining stack. After giving it some thought, Machon folded.
That pot vaulted Zhang to almost 4.6 million, which currently only trails partypoker ambassador Patrick Leonard at the top of the counts.
