Liebert Takes Commanding Lead

After a series of bets and raises on a {10-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{5-Spades} flop, Liebert and an opponent were all in.

Liebert was ahead at the moment with {a-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}, but here opponent had plenty of outs holding {k-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}.

Neither the {4-Spades} on the turn nor the {6-Clubs} on the river improved Liebert's opponent, and she chipped up to 35,000.

On Sabatical

Edward Sabat suffered a cooler to end his day in Event #39.

Before the break, Sabat opened to 700 on the button and was called by a player in the blinds. The flop fell {a-Spades}{9-Spades}{4-Clubs} and Sabat's opponent check-called 1,200.

The turn was the {a-Clubs} and Sabat's opponent check-called 3,800 more.

The river brought a {7-} and Sabat's opponent checked a third time. Sabat bet 8,000 and his opponent moved all in. Sabat called off his remaining 3,000 chips and his opponent opened {a-Diamonds}{7-} for a full house. Sabat showed {a-Hearts}{j-Spades} for trip aces and hit the rail.

Roller Coaster for BigRiskky

Omaha is so much more fun.
Omaha is so much more fun.

Scott "BigRiskky" Clements lost a sizable pot after flopping a set of kings against an opponent at his table. His opponent rivered broadway holding {a-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} on the {k-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{3-Clubs}{j-Diamonds}{q-Spades} board and Clements was forced to muck.

Clements doubled soon after though, getting all his chips in preflop with {a-Spades}{j-Spades} against an opponent's {a-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}. The board ran {a-Clubs}{8-Spades}{k-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} and Clements now sits with 11,000 chips.
