Liu Doubles on Bubble
Level 13
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Level 14: Blinds 4k/8k/8k
Short-stacked Matt Liu moved all in preflop and was called by Raymond Garcia to put him at risk on the stone bubble.
Matt Liu: Q♠10♦
Raymond Garcia: 4♥4♦
"Ok big cards, big cards," Liu proclaimed, but the flop came out 5♠8♥K♣, which was no help to him.
"Ok, any big card!" he says as the turn J♠ brought him a lot of outs, as any nine, queen, ten, or ace would give him the win.
"We back!" Liu shouted as he stacked his new chips.
Sure enough, the A♥ spiked on the river to give him the nut straight and he was awarded the pot for a much-needed double.
