VIDEO: Another Record-Breaking Pot – Aaron Zang Creates a $5 Million Moment in Jeju

Poker livestreams have brought countless wild hands, but this spot from the King Poker Cup Million Dollar Cash Game in Jeju, South Korea, has rewritten history. In this nosebleed cash game with a $1,000,000 buy-in, a player going by the nickname ST faced off against Chinese pro Aaron Zang, a former champion of the massive One Drop Million Dollar Event.

The board on the river showed T d 7 c Q s K s 8 d, and Zang bet $800,000 with a straight of J d 9 c into the $1,687,000 pot. But ST had a stronger move planned. After his all-in for $1,871,000, Zang found himself in a tough spot with the second nuts and, after deep contemplation, made the call. ST, however, turned over A h J h, a higher straight, and claimed the enormous $5,029,000 pot in front of the cameras.
