Feng Zhao opened with 36,000 pre-flop and had two callers in Yoichi Uesugi and John Tech for a three-way action.
Flop: 7♠ K♣ 5♦
Uesugi and Tech checked as Zhao bet 59,000. Uesugi got away from this one and Tech called.
Both players checked the turn 9♦ and on the river 9♣, Tech led out with 115,000… Feng tanked a bit before declaring a raise to 345,000! Tech, as usual, stared down his opponent long and hard before making a decision but ultimately made the fold.
Tech’s stack takes a little hit but still has over 1.4M while Zhao climbs to over 1.2M.
