Raghavan Cripples Liebert

As it folded round to Kathy Liebert in the small blind she pushed the action to 9,000. Ravi Raghavan then made a pot bet of 27,000 from the big blind with Liebert making the call.

The flop fell down {9-Spades}{7-Hearts}{6-Clubs} and Liebert pushed all in putting Raghavan to a decision for his tournament life.

Thinking for some time, Raghavan eventually made the call tabling {5-Diamonds}{5-Clubs} for an under-pair, but it would be ahead of Liebert's Ace-Queen high.

Needing to avoid an Ace or a Queen, Raghavan would stay alive when the {4-Clubs} and {8-Spades} fell on the turn and river to push Raghavan over the 100,000 mark as Liebert slipped to 20,000.
