Liberto Makes the Right Call Against Reard
Level 31
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Justin Liberto raised to 500,000 from the button, and Alexandre Reard defended his big blind.
They both checked through the 6♣5♠9♥ flop to the Q♠ on the turn. Reard bet 700,000 for Liberto to call.
The river completed the board with the 2♣, and Reard barreled a bet of 2,000,000 over the line. Liberto took some time, counted out his stack, and then decided to make the call.
Reard flicked the 7♠3♠ open for the missed straight and flush draws for Liberto to reveal the A♣Q♦ for the turned pair of queens and the pot.
