Dennis continued for 800,000 on the turn and Liberto called again. The river fell and Dennis thought for over half a minute before announcing he was all in. Liberto folded.
The very next hand saw a single-raised pot go to , where both players put in 200,000 and the river came . Liberto bet 280,000 and Dennis once again announced he was all in. Liberto folded after about five seconds, and Dennis is off to a fast start.
