Liu Runs Into Rockets

Level 10 : 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Robert Valdez
Robert Valdez

Sasha Liu checked a {q-Clubs}{j-Spades}{4-Spades} flop from the hijack, and Robert Valdez bet 9,000 into a pot of 20,000 in the cutoff. Liu tanked for a bit before check-raising all in for 68,000, and Valdez didn't take long to flick a chip in the pot to call.

Liu: {k-Diamonds}{q-Spades}
Valdez: {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}

Liu's pair of queens were well behind the aces of Valdez, and although she picked up an open-ender on the {10-Spades} turn, Valdez added a gutshot and nut flush draw of his own, negating some of those outs. The {4-Clubs} hit the river, and Valdez and his rockets held for a big pot and a knockout.
