Zhou Takes the First One from Durnegger
Level 14
: 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
It was only the first hand at the table, but it turned out to be a long one played between Markus Durnegger and Quan Zhou. Picking up the action on the turn with the board reading 
and around 150,000 in the middle, Durnegger checked from the small blind. Zhou counted out a bet of 60,000 and Durnegger called.
The 
landed on the river and Durnegger checked again. Zhou went into the tank for about three minutes before he finally slid out a bet of 160,000. Durnegger thought for a minute himself but decided to send his cards to the muck.
