Gonzales Crumbles as Zhang Flops Pair

Level 12: 1,000 / 2,000 ante: 2,000

Cheng Zhang opened under the gun to 4,000 and received two callers — Quynh Thai in the lowjack and Minh Tran in the small blind. But Martin Gonzales had other plans, moving all-in for 22,000 from the big blind. Zhang followed it up with an all-in of his own, putting Gonzales at risk. Thai and Tran quickly got out of the way, leaving the two to go to showdown.


Martin Gonzales: A K


Cheng Zhang: J T


Gonzales was in good shape pre-flop, but the dealer fanned out 7 T 6, pairing Zhang's ten to take the lead. Still holding hope for one of his overcards to hit, the 4 turn and 8 river brought no help. Gonzales was eliminated as Zhang raked in the pot.
