Zhou Receives Much-Needed Double
Level 26
: Blinds 100,000/150,000, 150,000 ante
Duco ten Haven raised to 300,000 from the button and Quan Zhou jammed his small blind for 665,000. Thomas Boivin folded his big blind and a quick called followed from Ten Haven.
Quan Zhou: A♠9♠
Duco ten Haven: Q♣3♣
Both players flopped a pair on A♣8♦Q♥, but Zhou's pair of aces remained the best on the J♦6♦ runout, securing him a double-up to 11 big blinds.
