Bjerga Doubles Through Liu

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Ervin Bjerga
Ervin Bjerga

Ervin Bjerga opened for 162,000 in the small blind, and Peixin Liu went all in. Bjerga thought for a couple of minutes and called off for 379,000.

Bjerga: {4-Hearts}{4-Spades}
Liu: {j-Spades}{8-Spades}

"Good call," the former champ said.

Liu got nothing on the {3-Clubs}{a-Spades}{5-Diamonds} flop but a {9-Spades} turn gave him a flush draw. The board harmlessly paired with the {a-Clubs} on the river.

Liu Bubbles Out

Level 24 : 12,000/24,000, 4,000 ante
Peixin Liu
Peixin Liu

Peixin Liu jammed for about 300,000 and was called by big blind Terry Ring, who woke up with {a-Clubs}{k-Diamonds}. Liu was dominated with {k-Spades}{9-Hearts}, and an ace-high flop and a brick turn signaled the end for Liu.

Players are redrawing for the final table.
