Blinds: 800,000/1,600,000
Matt Salsberg raised to 4,000,000 from late position, and in the big blind, Yijie Zhang wielded the big stack by moving all in. Salsberg tanked for about a minute before calling with [Jh][9h], and looked relieved to be flipping against the [3s][3c] of Zhang.
However, the board of [Ah][10s][5s][As][2c] bought no help for Salsberg, and the former WPT Player of the Year hits the rail in fifth.
That leaves just five players now. As of yet, there haven’t been any talks of a potential chop.
