Big Slick Means Big Pot for Zhu

Level 16 : Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante

Action folded around to Iraklis Manikaros on the button, who moved his short stack all in. Darius Neagoe followed by shoving his larger stack from the small blind, with Jingxuan Zhu committing all of his chips from the big blind.

Other players gathered around the table as the hands were revealed.

Iraklis Manikaros: Q10 All in
Jingxuan Zhu: AK All in
Darius Neagoe: 77

Zhu found the help he was looking for by connecting on the A43 flop. The J turn changed nothing, while Neagoe's rail was asking the dealer for a "Seven from heaven."

The river brought the 2, leaving Zhu in front and eliminating Manikaros.
