Zhao Catches Murthy on Hook
Neel Murthy has been a busy bunny and has been splashing around in quite a few pots to chip up. However, Murthy has been temporarily thwarted by Hongjun Zhao, who opened the action with a raise to 9,500 from early position with Murthy making the call from the big blind.
The flop brought checks from both players and Murthy also checked the turn. Needing no further encouragement Zhao fired for 10,000 and with chips to spare Murthy tossed in the call.
The river paired the board and brought a third check from Murthy and Zhao mulled over his options before deciding the right amount to bet was 22,000.
With the hook baited all Zhao needed now was a bite and Murthy obliged. Zhao turned over for a full house and Murthy tapped the table and mucked.
