Zhang Eliminated; Karamalikis Chips Up
Level 10
: 1,200/2,400, 400 ante
Chi Zhang was left short and got 
in against the 
of Alex Foxen.
The flop came 
. "Nine on the river," said Zhang. The turn 
didn't help and the decidedly un-nine-looking 
came on the river and Zhang was eliminated.
Meanwhile, Jonathan Karamalikis raised to 5,600 and Sam Higgs three-bet to 13,600 from the button. Karamalikis called and the flop came 
. Karamalikis check-called a bet of 12,800 and the turn 
was checked by both players.
On the 
river Karamalikis bet 13,600 and Higgs called, but mucked when his opponent showed 
for a pair of nines.
