Connor Zhu is threatening to run away with the tournament on Day 1, as he's amassed a huge chip lead already, with over double the next biggest stack in the room.
In a recent hand, he raised to 5,000 under the gun and was called by a player in the hijack.
The players checked the flop, then on the
turn, Zhu checked and his opponent fired out a pair of yellow T-1,000 chips for a bet of 2,000.
Zhu called, then checked the river. His opponent quickly checked back and Zhu showed
for king-high, which was good, as his opponent flashed queen-high.
