Li Zhang opened to 12,000 from the Hi-jack. She was called by Cosmin Staicu in the Small Blind, and Christoph Knight decided to defend his Big Blind.
The flop came 7♦A♥10♦. Staicu and Knight both checked before Zhang moved all in for 92,000. Staicu folded, and Knight took out his headphones; it was time for some speechplay.
“Do you want me to call?” he asked. “You must have an ace, right? I got middle pair and backdoors.”
Eventually, his hand went into the muck. Being a good sport, Zhang showed A♣J♣. Knight should be able to get a good night’s sleep tonight, knowing for sure he was behind.
Li Zhang: 152,000
