Mu Moves Up

Matt Livingston raised for the third consecutive time, making it 70,000 to go. And for the third consecutive time, Wei Mu moved all in on top of the opening raise. It was 683,000 total, and Livingston had a calling hand this time, quickly matching the bet to put Mu at risk.

Showdown
Livingston: {A-Spades} {K-Spades}
Mu: {Q-Spades} {Q-Hearts}

The flop was a big sweat for the two players, coming {4-Spades} {J-Clubs} {2-Spades}, a good miss for Livingston. Looking now for any ace, king, or spade, the turn card was a blank {7-Clubs}. The {4-Diamonds} that hit the river was no help either, and Mu screamed a loud celebration, having faded a myriad of outs twice.

After that exchange, Mu is all the way up to 1,400,000, leaving Livingston in the dog house with just 263,000.
