La Eliminates Liu
Level 14
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Joe Warling opened from under the gun to 8,000 and Aaron La moved all in for his remaining 81,000 from the hijack. Huawei Liu was in the cutoff and called off his remaining ~60,000 stack and Warling folded.
Huawei Liu: K♦K♠
Aaron La: A♥K♣
Liu was ahead and looking to find a double to stay alive but things took a turn on the 5♣4♠2♠ flop, as it brought in a straight draw for La.
The 3♦ was turned, bringing in the straight for La, and he held the lead on the 10♥ river, eliminating Liu just before the money bubble.
