Zhang Busts Hudon in First Hand

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Eliot Hudon
Eliot Hudon

Chanracy Khun opened to 4,000 from under the gun, Jinrong Zhang three-bet to 13,500 from middle position and Eliot Hudon four-bet shoved for 40,000 from the big blind. Khun got out of the way and Zhang snap-called with a covering stack.

Eliot Hudon: 1010 All in
Jinrong Zhang: AA

Zhang made top set on the A73 flop and by the 6 turn Hudon was drawing dead and already out of his seat. He did not stick around to see the 10 river give him an inferior set and Zhang took in a nice pot. Hudon would exercise his option to reenter shortly afterwards.
