Liu Puts Eljach to the Test
Level 30
: Blinds 125,000/250,000, 250,000 ante
Wing Po Liu raised to 750,000 on the button and Omar Eljach defended his big blind.
Eljach check-called a 550,000 bet from Liu on the 8♦K♥10♠ flop and then both players checked on the 3♠ turn.
The 5♦ completed the board and Eljach bet a hefty 2,850,000. Liu paused for some time and then announced a raise, which was enough to put Eljach all in for his last 4,200,000.
Eljach looked flustered and tanked for a bit before sending his hand into the muck — awarding the massive pot to Liu who is now the solid chip leader.
