Chiriac Holds On to Take Out Zhang

Level 4 : Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Ji Zhang

With around 5,000 in the pot, George Chiriac bet 2,000 from the small blind on a flop of {2-Hearts}{10-Spades}{4-Hearts} before Ji Zhang raised to 5,000 from early position.

Chiriac asked to see Zhang's remaining stack, which consisted of two blue 5,000 chips, before re-raising to 15,000. Zhang quickly threw in his last two chips.

Ji Zhang: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}
George Chiriac: {9-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}

Chiriac was ahead with his pair of nines but needed to fade Zhang's overcards and nut flush draw. The {j-Diamonds} on the turn gave Zhang more outs to a straight, but he couldn't connect with the {6-Spades} river and was sent to the exit.
