Level 37
: 500,000/1,000,000, 1,000,000 ante
Joseph Liberta found himself short-stacked when Paul Fehlig raised under the gun to 2,100,000 and he jammed from the big blind for 6,300,000. Fehlig quickly called and they both exposed their hands.
Joseph Liberta: 
Paul Fehlig: 
The flop came 
, giving Liberta trip aces, but the sweat wasn't over as Fehlig flopped a gutshot straight draw. Fortunately for Liberta the board completed with the 
on the turn and the 
on the river to secure the double up.
