Aggressive play paid off for Richard Zhang in a huge multi-way pot that was bloated by two misclicks on the bubble. You read that right. On the money bubble of a $500,000 guaranteed main event, two players in a row accidentally raised after there had already been a raise. both players meant to call.
The mistakes generated a pot big enough that local dealer Cici Payne called with a nut-flush draw for more than 400,000 chips after Zhang shoved all-in with top pair for nearly 700,000. Payne missed her flush and Zhang bagged an enormous stack of well over a million and a half.
Blinds: 8,000/16,000/16,000
