Zha Busts One to Take Lead
China’s Weizhou Zha’s ascension to the top of the table is now complete – all he needs to do now is stay there.
Zha was helped in his climb by a player who gave us his name as ‘NBK’ but we’re pretty sure that’s not what his mother calls him.
The fact is irrespective anyway as Mr. NBK is no longer in the running after opening to 2,600 from under-the-gun and getting raised to the tune of 6,600. Mr. NBK moved all-in for 19,300 in total and with chips to spare Zha made the call.
Mr. NBK: 
Weizhou Zha: 
The 
window saw NBK get to his feet and the rest of the 
flop would not see him re-take it anytime soon. The 
turn was not the eight he needed to survive, and neither was the 
river and that was that.
Zha raked in the pot and that puts him right at the top of the table with a stack of 113,000.
