Liu Busts a Shorty

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
Ziwen Liu
Ziwen Liu

The player under-the-gun shoved for their last 11,500 and directly behind him, Ziwen Liu also went all in for around 22,000. Everyone else folded and hands were revealed.

Ziwen Liu: {j-Spades}{j-Clubs}
Under-the-gun: {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}

Liu was ahead with his overpair, and the {10-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{4-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{3-Clubs} runout meant Liu would send his opponent to the rail.

Myer Scores a Big Double up

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

The player under-the-gun opened to 1,800 and was three-bet by Brian Myer to 5,400 on the button. Action folded back to the original raiser, who called.

Myer bet 5,000 when checked to on the {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop and his opponent check-raised to 11,500. Myer called.

Myer's opponent continued for 18,000 on the {4-Clubs} turn and Myer shoved all in for 47,500 total. After a bit of deliberation, the player under-the-gun called to put Myer at risk.

Brian Myer: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}
Under-the-gun: {k-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}

Myer was ahead of his opponent's flush draw and the {8-Clubs} river kept Myer in front — sealing his double up.

Voor Doesn't Back Down

Level 6 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Andrew Voor opened to 1,500 on the button and was called by the small blind. The player in the big blind then squeezed to 7,600 total. Undeterred, Voor four-bet to 20,000 and the small blind quickly folded. The big blind tanked for a while before eventually letting his cards go — conceding the pot to Voor.

Haofung Xu
Haofung Xu

Haofung Xu opened to 1,300 from middle position and was called by the player in the hijack. The player in the cutoff then squeezed to 5,000 and only Xu called.

Both players checked on the {a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{7-Spades} flop, prompting a 2,500 bet from Xu on the {5-Spades} turn. Xu's opponent called.

The {6-Diamonds} completed the board and Xu fired a modest 4,000 into the middle. His opponet folded after a bit of thought and Xu collected the chips.
