Quan Zhou Eliminated in 4th Place ($976,000)

Level 20
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante

Masashi Oya jammed the small blind and Quan Zhou deliberated for his remaining stack of about 3,600,000 in the big blind.
"Gamble!" Zhou eventually said as he put a stack of chips over the line.
Quan Zhou: K?7?
Masashi Oya: Q?10?
Zhou was slightly ahead, but the J?10?8? flop left him needing help. The 9? turn improved Oya to a queen-high straight and Zhou needed a queen for a better straight, but the 10? river bricked out and Zhou was eliminated in fourth place for $976,000
