Hao Zhang

Hand #109: Shuang Qiu opened A 5 to 1,000,000 from under the gun and action folded around to Hao Zhang with A 7 in the big blind. Zhang called.

The 5 7 K flop saw Zhang make a quick check and Qiu bet 750,000.

Zhang paid to see the 6 turn and Zhang checked again, with Qiu checking behind. Qiu had Zhang beat with the nut flush.

A 7 came on the river, giving Zhang trip sevens. He bet 750,000 but Qiu was going nowhere, and he raised to 3,300,000.

Zhang took a while before jamming for 11,000,000. Qiu calmly checked his cards and sat back to contemplate his decision. He would be all in for his remaining 5,000,000 if he called.

Qiu moved in a stack, making the right call, and moved up to second in chips. Zhang was left with around five big blinds after the hand.

Hand #110: Lili Tang opened to 1,000,000 from under the gun with 4 4 and action folded around to Hao Zhang in the small blind who had been dealt A J .

Zhang moved all in for 2,800,000 and Tang snap-called.

Zhang stood from the table to watch the runout.

There was very little sweat on the 2 3 K 8 5 runout and Zhang was eliminated in 4th place after a brutal final two hands.
