Liberto and Julia Meet Again

Level 5 : 800/1,600, 0 ante
Justin Liberto
Justin Liberto

Omaha Hi-Lo

Justin Liberto late-registered and was sent to a table that included none other than the defending champion Nicholas Julia, who he had battled with for many hours before eventually finishing in third place.

Both clashed soon after when Julia raised and Liberto three-bet on the button for Julia to call. They checked the {q-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{9-Hearts} flop and Julia bet the {j-Hearts} turn. Liberto raised and that ended the hand right there.

"Write it down, I was just dominated by the third-best nine-game player in the world," Julia joked.
