Zhao Shoves Into Hong

Level 4 : 200/400, 50 ante

The pots are most certainly getting bigger and more than a dozen players have already been eliminated with four re-entries in the mix.

A big pot was brewing between Nan Hong from under the gun and Hongjun Zhao and things escalated from a limp-reraise preflop to a big bet worth 19,000 on the {8-Clubs}{5-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} turn. Zhao was not impressed at all by that and simply moved all in, covering Hong by far, and the time bank for the latter ran down to four seconds before Hong folded his cards.

Right after, Hong was moved to a different table and is among the four thus far that are on their second bullet.

JC Alvarado bet a heads-up turn of {9-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{10-Spades} for 6,000 out of the big blind and Dong Kim called. On the {J-Diamonds} river, both players checked and Alvarado flashed {A-Spades}{Q-Spades}. Kim took down the pot with {K-Clubs}{K-Spades} and immediately said "I was so scared of a big bet on the river."
