J.J. Liu Hanging in There

J.J. Liu was in need of a double up when things got aggressive at her table. On a flop reading {7-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{6-Spades}, the small blind bet 2,000 and Liu countered with a raise to 5,000. When the small blind re-raised to 9,000, Liu made the call, putting herself all in.

Liu: {k-Clubs}{9-Clubs}
Opponent: {j-Diamonds}{j-Spades}

Liu needed some help from the poker gods to stay alive. She didn't get it on the {q-Hearts} turn, but was saved when the river came {j-Clubs}.

Liu is now at about 14,000
