Lieu Mixing It Up Just Before Dinner

Liz Lieu was in two hands just before dinner. Sitting in the big blind, she called a raise to 12,500 from Susumu Toge. The players checked the board all the way to the river. There, with the board reading {7-Diamonds}

, Toge bet 8,000. Lieu tanked for more than a minute before making the call. Toge showed {A-Spades}

for the winner.

The next hand, Ron Kluber raised the button to 16,000. Lieu moved in for 68,500 from the small blind. Kluber thought it over for about a minute and a half before mucking nines face up.
