Top Pair No Good for Liu

[user75032]

Liu not as stacked as previously.

"I guess you don't have aces then," said J.J. Liu's opponent as he opened {K-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{K-Spades}

. The flop was showing {3-Hearts}

{3-Hearts}

{j-Diamonds}

{7-Spades}

and Liu, sitting in the blinds, had her initial lead of roughly 10,000 raises all in by her opponent to 31,200. Liu tanked before calling.

It turned out that Liu did not have aces. She had top pair, {Q-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{J-Spades}

, and did not improve on the turn {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

or river

{5-Spades}

. That hit knocked Liu's stack back down to 80,000.
