Chao Flushes Out Luo
China's Zhang Chao had been quiet as of late as one of the shorter stacks. However, we caught her in action in a hand against fellow countryman Qi Luo that cost the latter his tournament life, and gave Chao some new chips with which to assault the leaderboard with.
Down to her last 160,000 or so, Chao moved all-in from under-the-gun and the action folded around to Luo on the cutoff, who quickly announced the call for his tournament life. The rest of the table got out of the way and the cards were turned over.
Zhang Chao: 
Qi Luo: 
Luo had the lead, but the flop fell an extremely sweaty 
, much to Chao's excitement. The 
turn saw Chao's flush come straight in, which she celebrated with an excited squeal, while Luo gave a disgusted huff and, now drawing dead, got to his feet and began packing up his stuff.
The meaningless 
river saw the pot shipped Chao's way and she climbed to 260,000 while Luo headed off to the cash desk to collect his winnings.
