Ben Gazzola raised to 65,000 under the gun, Xiaoqiong Liu flatted in the hijack, and Tim Faro called in the small blind.
The flop of 5♠3♦5♣ checked through to the 6♣ turn. Faro led out for 125,000, and both Gazzola and Liu called.
The river landed the 3♣ and Faro moved all in for 570,000, putting himself at risk. Gazzola folded and Liu went into the tank.
After counting out her chips and thinking through her decision, Liu eventually made the call.
Faro showed 2♣2♠, playing the board, while Liu turned over A♣Q♣ for an ace-high flush.
