Penescu Pulls Ahead on the River
Level 28
: Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Yiannis Liperis raised every pot pre-flop after busting Tuan Le and took them all down uncontested until he opened again for 125,000 under the gun and Cosmin Penescu finally gave him some action in the hijack.
Both players checked the 7♣6♦8♣ flop and Liperis then led out for 75,000 on the 9♥ turn.
Penescu called to the A♦ river and action checked through again, Penescu showed A♣J♣ to beat Liperis' K♣9♣ with his rivered pair of aces.
