Hausen Falls to Liberto
Level 16
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Limits: 8,000-28,000
Tobias Hausen limped from middle position, Eric Wasserson limped the hijack, and Qiang Xu limped the cutoff. On the button, Justin Liberto potted to 42,000. Hausen called, Wasserson reluctantly folded, and Xu called.
On the Q♠9♣3♠ flop, Hausen jammed for 12,000, Xu potted, and Liberto called all-in for 57,000.
Tobias Hausen: A♠3♦3♣2♥ 
Justin Liberto: K♠K♦J♣10♥
Qiang Xu: A♥10♦9♠9♥
Xu flopped middle set while Liberto had a wrap and Hausen needed divine intervention. No waiting was required for Liberto on the J♥ turn as he made the nuts. Xu failed to fill up on the 7♦ river as Liberto scooped a big one and Hausen was eliminated.
