Liebert's Pocket Pair is Good

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

We caught the action with a flop of {4-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{q-Spades} and a four-way pot. After a check from Kathy Liebert, a player bet 550, two players got out of the way, and Liebert made the call. The turn was the {2-Clubs} and both players checked. After the {5-Spades} river, Liebert check-called a 925 bet from her opponent and rolled over {10-Hearts}{10-Spades} which was better than the {j-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds} of her opponent.

Madsen Doubles Through Ausmus

Level 3 : 75/150, 0 ante

Jeremy Ausmus opened to 425 from the button and Jeff Madsen moved all in for around 3,000. Ausmus quickly called.

Ausmus: {a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}
Madsen: {a-Hearts}{j-Hearts}

It was looking good for Ausmus to eliminate Madsen, though Madsen did receive more outs after the {9-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{7-Spades} flop. The {j-Clubs} turn paired Madsen and the {3-Clubs} river left him good for the double up.
