Eric Liu Finishes the Level with a Win

Eric Liu raised to 750 from early position and got called by the player in the hijack. Both players checked the flop of {9-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{8-Spades} and Liu then check-raised the {J-Clubs} on the turn to 3,650. When his opponent folded, Liu took the pot and headed to dinner.
