Zhang On the Rise
There are some big stacks beginning to grow as the field continues to shrink, with the largest of those belonging to Andrew Zhang who has railed the unfortunate Chris Zenonos to pad out his already ample stack still further.
It was Zhang the man driving the action, min-raising from under-the-gun to 6,000 and picking up callers in the form of Zenonos (small blind) and a player in the big blind.
Both made the call to take the action three-way to a monochrome flop, which saw Zenonos and the small blind check it over to Zhang, who continued for 5,000. Zenonos was the only caller.
The turn paired the board and brought another check from Zenonos and another bet from Zhang, this one a slightly larger 11,000, which was again called to bring the action heads-up to the river.
Zhang asked Zenonos how much he was playing behind - 55,000 - before pushing out a stack of turquoise 25k chips to put Zenonos all-in. After some time in the tank, Zenonos made the call for his tournament life, and looked distinctly unhappy when Zhang rolled over for the flopped flush. Zenonos hit the rail while Zhang stacked up to 620,000.
