Liu Rivers Straight
Xuan Liu is in the field today and ready to make a deep run in this event.
Liu, no stranger to success on the tournament circuit, has final tabled two major PokerStars sponsored live events since she began playing live poker. Liu's first major cash came back in 2011 when she made the final table of the EPT Sanremo Main Event. Liu came just short of making it to heads up play when she was eliminated in third place. Still, she collected a massive payday of $524,705 for her stellar performance.
Less than a year later, Liu once again showcased her tournament poker prowess when she added a fourth-place finish at the 2012 PokerStars Caribbean Adventure Main Event to her resumé. She pocketed another $600,000 for this performance.
Today, we found Liu once again scooping up chips and prepping herself for what could be a deep run in this tournament. The flop read 
and there were two checks to Liu. She bet 1,000 and the player in the small blind called. The big blind folded and they were heads up to the turn.
The dealer put out the 
out on the turn and both players tapped the table. The river was the 
and action was once again checked to Liu. She fired 2,100 and her opponent called. Liu rolled over 
for a rivered straight and her opponent mucked his cards. Liu is now sitting on a stack of about 35,500.
