From under the gun, JJ Liang bet 50,000 to open the betting preflop. He saw a call from Feng Zhao from the cutoff but a raise to 295,000 from Mike Fawaz from the button.
Liang folded his hand while Zhao moved over the top for a shove worth 931,000!
Fawaz thought for a bit but quickly called.
Fawaz: J♠ J♥
Liang: A♦ A♣
Fawaz must be kicking himself with the decision as the board 5♠ 6♥ 9♣ 10♦ 8♣ and he lost the big pot. The Lebanese dropped to just around 500,000 while Zhao is back on top with nearly 2 million in chips.
