Lin Busts Zhou
Quan Zhou��s hopes of winning a second High Roller title in the space of a month have just been dashed with Qiang Lin the man to crush Zhou��s dreams.
Down to just over 12 big blinds, Zhou moved his last 37,000 into the middle from the hi-jack and Huidong Gu made the call from the button before Lin squeezed all-in for an additional 93,500 from the small blind.
Zhou looked happy about the protection and Gu hit the think tank hard. There was some banter (in Mandarin, so we couldn��t understand much of it) before Gu grudgingly folded telling the table he had ace-king.
Zhou turned over 
and found himself racing for his tournament life against the 
of Lin.
The 
gave Zhou a meaningless gutshot Broadway straight draw, as should he hit it Lin would make the full house. Ironically, that is exactly what happened with the 
hitting the turn to leave Zhou drawing dead. The 
river was just a formality and Zhou hit the rail while Lin stacked up to over 170,000.
