Blinds: 500,000/1,000,000
Yijie Zhang raised to 2,000,000, Yu Zheng moved all in for 15,500,000, and Matt Salsberg moved all in over the top for just a bit more. Zhang folded while flashing an ace, and Zheng was happy to see that, as he had [Jc][Jh] against the [As][Qs] of Salsberg.
Zheng shot out to a big lead on the [Jd][10d][7d] flop, and the [Ac] turn was a bit of salt in Salsberg’s wounds, as he needed a king instead of an ace now. The [10s] completed the board, and Zheng doubled up into second place with over 30 million.
Meanwhile, Salsberg was knocked down to just 2,500,000, but he more than doubled up on the next hand, and remains alive with six left.
