Five-Bet Gets It Done for Laliberté

Cary Katz opened for 36,000 under the gun and was soon met with a three-bet to 146,000 from Guy Laliberté in the cutoff. The button and small blind both got out of the way, but Philipp Gruissem decided to four-bet to 290,000 from the big blind. Katz got out of the way, but Laliberté wasn't done.

He gather some chips, announced a raise, and then made it 286,000 more to go. Gruissem thought for almost two minutes, carefully eyeing up Laliberté, and then released his hand.
