Gisler Gives Zhang Rope
Level 26
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Zilong Zhang opened to 175,000 from early position and received a single call from Jon Gisler out of the big blind.
The flop came and Gisler checked to Zhang, who continued for 235,000. Gisler made the call to send the two players to the turn.
Gisler checked for a second time on the turn and again called after Zhang continued his aggression with a bet of 765,000.
The river put a four liner to a straight on the board. Gisler checked one more time and Zhang, as if it was ever in doubt, fired off a third barrel, this time pushing a hefty 2,300,000 into the middle. Gisler called and turned over for the straight, good enough to sink Zhang's holding and scoop a large pot.
