Sep 19, 2018

Team China

In the tag-team no-limit hold’em event, GACKT of Team Japan limps under the gun for 400, Yang Zhang of Team China raises from the cutoff to 1,500, and Ivan Seng Yee Leow of Team Malaysia three-bets all in from the small blind for 12,755.

GACKT folds, and Zhang tanks for a while before he calls all in for 8,500 with Heart 8Club 8. Leow turns over Spade AClub K, and Zhang needs his hand to hold to keep Team China alive.

The board comes Spade JHeart 6Heart 2Heart KHeart J — Leow pairs his king on the turn, but Zhang rivers a heart flush to win the pot and double up his stack for Team China.

Team China  –  18,000  (45 bb)
Team Japan  –  25,500  (64 bb)
Team Malaysia  –  4,275  (11 bb)
