Zheng Rises Further With a Knockout
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
On the tail end of a 10?6?2?J?5? board, Xiaosheng Zheng bet 2,000 out of the blinds. He was raised to 7,000 to then move all-in and his opponent mulled it over for a while. With around 12,000 behind, the shorter stack eventually called it off.
Zheng tabled the 4?3? for the nut straight and his opponent sent the cards right into the muck, where the dealer retrieved them to expose 8?8? according to all-in showdown rule.
