Liberto Smacks the Flop to Bust One and Take Chip Lead
Level 8
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
The player in the big blind was all in for 123,000 and Justin Liberto, in the cutoff, had him at risk and well covered.
Big Blind: A♣10♣
Justin Liberto: K♦J♠
The 9♦K♣K♥ flop was a disaster for the all-in player as Liberto made trip kings. The Q♣ on the turn gave the all-in player one out to a straight flush, but Liberto remained in front on the 8♠ river to send his opponent to the rail.
