From under the gun, Li Zhendong (pictured) moves his last 55,000 chips forward, getting calls from Michael Wang in the hijack and Valeriy Pak in the big blind.
Pak and Wang check to the river of the board before Pak bets 25,000. Wang folds, but Pak’s for two pair is no good, as Zhendong holds for trip sevens to keep him alive in the tournament.
Valeriy Pak – 906,000 (75 bb)
Michael Wang – 860,000 (71 bb)
Li Zhendong – 183,000 (15 bb)
