Livermore Will Live Some More; Doubles Through Lombardo

Level 27 : 25,000/50,000, 5,000 ante

Brad Livermore open shoved under the gun for 186,000.

"I doubled you up last time," John Lombardo said before looking at his cards.

"You've done it once, you can do it again," Livermore said.

Lombardo eventually called and everyone else at the table folded.

John Lombardo: {A-Diamonds}{J-Spades}
Brad Livermore: {A-Hearts}{10-Hearts}

The flop was {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{3-Spades} which left some players cheering for a chop, but the turn was the {10-Diamonds} giving Livermore the lead in the hand. The river was the {K-Hearts} and with that, Livermore would double up through Lombardo.

"This game is rigged," Lombardo said after the hand, laughing.
