Alex Fitzgerald Eliminated in 14th Place ($70,000)
![[user66118]](/img/avatars/avatar.svg){kind=avatar}
When the table folded around to his small blind, Alex Fitzgerald raised to 145,000 with Xuan Liu behind him. Liu must have liked what she saw, because she reraised to 365,000, but Fitzgerald wasn't going anywhere. He four-bet shoved for just a shade less than 2.1 million, almost as much as Liu had. She spent just a couple seconds making sure — it was quite a decision to be faced with — but the call came surprisingly quickly to put Fitzgerald at risk.
Showdown
Fitzgerald: 
Liu: 
Liu was in front with ace-queen, but Fitzgerald was suited and drawing very live to the huge pot.
He wasn't drawing live for long. In fact, the 
flop was a disaster that ended things right then and there. Fitzgerald was already eliminated two cards early as Liu's trip aces could not be beaten.
The turn 
and river 
are only here to prove the deck was fair, but Fitzgerald was already long gone by the time the dealer grabbed his stacks and pushed them across to Liu.
We've got one lady left, and she's teaching these boys a lesson right now. Liu is the chip daddy(?) with more than 4.4 million in front of her now.
