Like A Boss!

Level 4: 200 / 300 ante: 300

The pot had grown to 8,400 , and the tension at the table was visible. Tang Xinxing, last crowned Player of the Series at the USOP Hai Phong, casually bet 7,000, his eyes not on the felt but glued to his phone, completely unbothered by the action around him.

Zaitsev Evgenii, still no idea from yesterday’s “mucked chop” mistake, decided to push his luck, check-raising all in for 25,000 with two pair. The table leaned in, waiting to see if Tang would fold or react. But Tang didn’t even look at the board. With the same calm he had shown since the start of the day, he called.

When his cards revealed a full house, the outcome was sealed, Zaitsev’s tournament run ended, and Tang simply stacked the chips, still absorbed in his phone as if nothing had happened. Zaitsev could only watch his tournament end as Tang, like a boss, stacked the chips one-handed without even looking up.
