Zheng Doubles Through Stoika
Nivel 3
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Roman Stoika had a chunky reraise of 10,400 in front of him from the small blind, which both Fares Sahyoun in middle position and Xiaosheng Zheng in the hijack called.
The trio saw a flop of 9♦4♣6♦ where Stoika bet 11,000, Sahyoun folded, and Zheng called.
When the 2♥ landed on the turn, Stoika eyed up Zheng's stack and saw he had around 80,000 remaining, then he bet 115,000. Zheng had a decision for the rest of his stack and after thinking for some time, he made the call.
Xiaosheng Zheng: 10♠10♥ 
Roman Stoika: A♥9♣
Stoika had top pair, but it was no good against the overpair of Zheng. Only an ace or a nine on the river would see the Chinese player eliminated, but instead the 4♦ rolled off, which earned Zheng a double-up.
