Bien Mai
Jianguo Zhou raises to 1,800 and Bien Mai calls in the cutoff, everyone else behind folds. Zhou continues for 2,000 on the A108 flop to earn a call from Mai before he checks the 9 turn. Mai bets 6,000 and Zhou check-calls.
On the 6 river, Zhou checks again and Mai moves all-in for 27,700. That does the trick to win the pot uncontested, as Zhou opts to fold.
Bien Mai - 49,500 (124 bb)
Jianguo Zhou - 32,000 (80 bb)
