Liv Boeree Makes an Insane Laydown

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

On a turn of {8-Spades}{2-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{10-Spades}, Kevin Song checked to Liv Boeree who bet 110,000. James Salmon and Kevin Song called.

The river was the {k-Diamonds}. Song and Boeree checked to Salmon who moved all in for around 350,000. Song then called and Boeree looked conflicted and tanked for a long time.

She appeared to be muttering the action of the hand over and over to herself, gesturing to one stack then the other, gesturing to the size of the pot. Eventually, and in full face of the cameras, she folded.

Song showed {k-}{q-} for trip kings, while Salmon showed {8-}{8-} for a full house. Boeree, whose cards had been put to one side for use on future TV coverage, reached forward to show {2-}{2-} for a smaller full house.

"I didn't know what would have made me feel worse," said Boeree. "If I make the correct lay down I am still losing a two-million-chip pot.

"I'm happy I made the correct decision."
