Liberto Catches Stacey's Bluff; Kosugi the First to Six Figures

Level 3 : Limits 1,000/2,000, 0 ante

Wil Wilkinson raised in the cutoff, Justin Liberto three-bet on the button, Patrick Stacey made it four bets in the small blind, Wilkinson folded, and Liberto called.

Stacey drew one and bet while Liberto drew two and called.

On the second draw, both took one and it checked through.

Both drew one again on the end as Stacey led, and Liberto called fairly quick.

Patrick Stacey: 8x5x4x4x2x
Justin Liberto: 10x5x4x3x2x

Stacey was bluffing after pairing his four and Liberto made the right call with his ten to win.

The previous hand at the table, a massive pot went in the direction of Wataru Kosugi. He got in three bets on river against Jonathan Glendinning with plenty of chips already in the middle. Kosugi had a wheel that hand as he becomes the first player in the room to reach 100,000.
