Bad Day at the Office for Liu

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

One table was still playing seven minutes into the last break and the completed board showed {A-Clubs}{5-Spades}{3-Spades}{8-Spades}{K-Hearts}. William Hickey had checked in late position and Xuan Liu bet 15,000 on the button. Hickey check-raised to 100,000, essentially giving Liu the option to fold or continue with a short stack.

After some consideration, Liu called and Hickey turned over the {A-Diamonds}{A-Hearts} for top set. Liu wanted to muck, and as per the all-in showdown rule, her {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds} was exposed.

"She just couldn't catch a break," Hickey said while Liu left the tournament area with a sigh and "I have never ran so bad in one day."
