Aces vs. Kings

A player opens the pot from middle position and the small blind comes over the top for all his chips. J.J. Liu makes the call from the big blind and the other player gets out of the way.

The small blind shows {K-Spades} {K-Hearts} but Liu has him in trouble with {A-Spades} {A-Diamonds} .

The board keeps Liu's pocket aces safe and she eliminates her opponent to move up to 46,000.
