Liu Flops Brunson Dead With His Dad's Hand
Level 33
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Todd Brunson raised to 900,000 with A♥10♣ and Tolga Karakaya called in the small blind with A♠10♥. Zhao Liu then got frisky in the big blind and called with 10♠2♥, a hand made famous by the late Doyle Brunson, who won this very event back-to-back years with ten-deuce.
The flop landed 8♠2♦6♦, leaving Brunson and Karakaya dead to a chop. The flop checked through and Liu bet 1,700,000 on the 4♠ turn. Brunson folded and Karakaya check-raised to 4,500,000 and Liu called.
Karakaya checked on the 6♠ river and Liu turned the best hand into a bluff by betting 8,500,000. Karakaya folded the worse hand.
