Tian Zhi Kong

Tian Zhi Kong opened 1,200,000 on the button and big blind Meng Ling Lin defended. Both players checked to the turn 9 ♣️ 8 ♠️ 9 ♥️ 3 ♠️ where Lin led for 1,500,000. Kong answered with a raise to 3,200,000, and Lin called. 

After the heavy bets, no action was seen on the river 8 ♠️. 

Lin had K ♦️ 4 ♦️ king high but it was not enough to win the pot with Kong flipping over A ♦️ 10 ♦️.
