Liperis Catches an Ace to Survive
Level 24
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Jonathan Tamayo raised to 100,000 and Yiannis Liperis three-bet jammed his short stack of 340,000 in the hijack. Casey Stewart then moved all-in over the top in the cutoff and everyone behind including Tamayo folded.
Yiannis Liperis: A♥Q♥ 
Casey Stewart: Q♣Q♦
The A♣7♠4♥ flop instantly delivered an improvement for Liperis, who only had to fade the case queen in the deck. Nothing changed with the 9♣ turn and 10♦ river for Liperis to more than double.
