Zijing Zhan Knocks Out Bobby Zhang
Level 16: 4,000 / 8,000 ante: 8,000

From under the gun, Bobby Zhang is all in for his last 11 bb and nearly survives the end of the orbit until small blind Zijing Zhan calls to put him on the ropes.
It's a flip with Zhang showing K♠ Q♥ against Zhan's J♦ J♥ . The board improves both T♥ 9♠ 8♥ Q♦ A♦ . Zhan's straight dominates to collect all of Zhang's chips.

Ankit Ahuja Runs Up a Stack
Level 14: 2,500 / 5,000 ante: 5,000

Ankit Ahuja opens to 10,000 and both players in the blinds call including Javier Gomez and Bobby Zhang. They check the K♠ Q♠ 3♥ flop to Ahuja, who wins the pot with a bet of 20,000.
"A check-raise would have been ugly," Ahuja tells Gomez. He has surpassed half a million in chips to reach the higher echelons of the leaderboard.
