Jie Zhang

Jie Zhang kicked off the action with a raise to 50,000 from under the gun, and Or Yaaqov Nezer called right behind him. When the action reached Suya Lee on the button, he jammed for 425,000. Takumi Monden, sitting in the small blind, peeked at his cards and instantly moved all in for around 1,200,000. Zhang didn’t hesitate—he snap-shoved his stack of nearly 1,300,000, prompting Nezer to fold with a calm, "I surrender."

Suya Lee: A Q

Takumi Monden: K K

Jie Zhang: A A

What a brutal setup! Lee was all but drawing dead, while Zhang had a golden opportunity to build a massive three-million chip stack—provided his aces held.

The J 6 9 flop was bone-dry, leaving Lee with a slim chance at survival. The 4 on the turn sealed his fate, and only a king could save Monden. But the 5 river was clean for Zhang, who raked in the monster pot and sent both opponents to the rail!
