Liu Celebrates Hero Call for Tournament Life
Level 6
: Blinds 400/800, 800 ante
The action was picked up on the Q♥6♦5♦ flop, with Yue Liu check-calling Uri Reichenstein's bet of 6,500 from middle position.
This increased the size of the pot to just shy of 40,000. Liu checked once more on the 10♣ turn, and Reichenstein fired for 11,00 from the cutoff. Liu called.
Liu, with 27,000 behind, checked for a third time on the 6♠ river. Reichenstein put Liu all in and sent his opponent into the tank. With his chips in his hand, Liu rose from his seat and slammed them down to call.
Reichenstein grimaced as he rolled over his AxJx for ace-high. Liu celebrated and tabled his 8♥5♥, which was good for sixes and fives.
