Zhou Flushes Kumar
Level 25
: 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Steven Zhou came within a whisker of busting at the feature table, but instead put a nasty beat on Anish Kumar.
It was Shane De Clifford who lit the blue touch paper with an under-the-gun open to 110,000 with Zhou moving all-in for over 1.1 million from the next seat over.
Anish Kumar cold-called from the big blind - usually a sign of strength - and De Clifford must have thought so too from the speed of his fold.
Anish Kumar: 
Steven Zhou: 
Kumar held the best starting hand in poker but was not happy about the monochrome 
flop and while he faded spades on the 
turn, Zhou got there on the 
river to take a big bite out of Kumar's stack.
