#1 WARM-UP ($565)
WARM-UP

Neng Zhao Goes From 3 Bigs To Warm Up Champion

How do you feel after winning the Warm Up Event?


I was overwhelmed because all of my best friends are around next to me so in live event when you win and your friends are there, it’s the best feeling.


You were down at one point, how did you manage to recover?


I was down to 3.2 bigs left with 17 players left. Players were making lots of mistakes, calling when they shouldn’t call, trying to bust me out but my hands were holding up.


Did you imagine winning it after winning every showdown?


I actually said to my mate when I got to the final table with eight left, I can t literally lose from here. I even took a video before the final table started, I was holding the trophy and I said may as well take a photo of me now and get it done because I am going to win it anyways.


At four left, I was second in chips, I called my mate over and I said get ready for photos. I was that confident because the players were making many mistakes and I wasn’t making mistakes so I can’t lose from here.
