Level 10
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Just before the blinds went up, Paul Phua raised to 19,000. He was called by Chi Zhang on the button and Ling Tien Loon also came along from the big blind. The flop was checked to Zhang and he made it 22,000 to go, only Phua called.
Both checked down the turn and river, to which Phua tabled his . However, Zhang had that beat with the and shrugged "royal flush draw" while collecting the pot.
