Liberto Tanks & Hits River
Level 22
: Blinds 10,000/20,000, 20,000 ante
Brian Yoon opened to 40,000 from the cutoff and David "ODB" Baker called on the button. Justin Liberto three-bet jammed to 160,000 with just 5,000 behind and Yoon folded as Baker took some time to help Liberto see a pay jump.
Liberto tanked before checking on the flop of Q♠9♦Q♥ and Baker bet to put him all in. Liberto called.
Justin Liberto: A♥K♣ 
David "ODB" Baker: 10♣10♠
Liberto needed to hit an ace or a king and did so as the board finished out 5♦K♠ to bring him a double.
"That's not surprising," commented Jared Jaffe. "The only surprising thing is that he had that many outs."
