Heads-up on a board of 3♣4♠10♣K♠ with a large pot already in the middle, Justin Liberto check-called a bet from Jean Laurent and then led out for a bet on the Q♥ river. Laurent looked Liberto up and was shown A♥J♠7♠5♥ for the broadway to lose most of his chips.
On the very next hand, Laurent was forced all in from the big blind and Chris Lee called from the small blind to put him at risk.
Jean Laurent: Q♥Q♦5♣2♦
Chris Lee: K♥J♠10♥7♥
The board ran out 7♦K♠5♥4♥9♠ — leaving Lee best with a pair of kings to eliminate Laurent in third place.
