Double Doulble for Liu

J.J. Liu just doubled up twice in two consecutive hands. In the first hand she went all in under the gun and was called by a player in middle position.

Liu: {a-Spades}{q-Spades}
Opponent: {8-Hearts}{8-Spades}

The flop of {k-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} was no help to Liu, but she got some love on the turn {q-Diamonds} and the river {a-Hearts}.

In the very next hand, the small blind raised to 850 and Liu pushed all in for 2,850. She was called only to find out she wasn't in as good a position as she was last time around.

Liu: {a-Spades}{k-}
Opponent: {k-Clubs}{k-}

The flop came {j-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{7-Hearts}, giving no direct help, but some more outs to Liu. The {j-Hearts} on the turn didn't help, but river came down {a-Diamonds}, sending Liu's chip count to 5,700.
