Wen Zhang:
Button Player:
Nicholas Bilotti:
Both Zhang and Bilotti were at risk as their opponent was ahead and held the same staright draw as Zhang.
Luckily for Zhang, the dealer turned the giving him the only chance he had at staying alive but the same couldn't be said for Bilotti as he needed a six to fall on the river to try and get a chop as well.
Instead, the dealer added some salt to the wound dropping the giving him the set but it was too late and he was eliminated from the tournament.
