Lieu Lets One Go

At the end of the previous level, Liz Lieu raised 3x to 75 from middle position and got two callers -- the button and the big blind. The flop came {10-Hearts}{8-Spades}{4-Hearts}. Lieu bet 250, and both of her opponents called. The turn brought the {A-Clubs}. This time Lieu bet 500, and the player on the button raised to 1,000. When the big blind called the raise, Lieu decided to step aside.

The {9-Clubs} river went check-check, and the button’s {A-Spades}{8-Hearts} proved best. Lieu still did well in that level, ending the first hour with 5,200.
