Free space of 'zfs list' vs 'zpool list'

I use zfs as root file system in a raidz1 configuration with 4x1.5TB disks.
zpool list says 150G available while zfs list says 47.1GB available. I do
not use any reservations but compression is enabled.

Due to the raidz with 4 disks, I would expect zfs list to say 150GB * 75% =
112.50GB free, not 47.1GB. Can someone explain where the 65GB have gone?
