Wenchao Liu premature departure
Wenchao Liu has been running deep at the high roller tables with three final table berths. Entering the day with a very healthy stack his bid for the Main Event title nearly ended when he open-shoved from early position and was joined by Jinyu Zhou who had a covering stack.
Liu's A ♠️ Q ♣️ was behind Jinyu Zhou's A ♦️ K ♠️. Liu was got up and was ready to walk away when the board ran 9 ♥️ 8 ♦️ 6 ♦️ 8 ♠️ 9 ♠️ for a split pot.
