Liu Cracks Aces to Score Massive Double

Ryan Lashmar

Level 26 : Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante

Gergo Nagy limped in from under the gun and Wing Po Liu raised to 325,000 from the hijack. Nagy responded with a pot-sized raise to 1,125,000 which Liu called.

The flop came 10♥3♣2♠ and Nagy moved all in, covering Liu's remaining stack of 1,235,000. Liu considered his options for roughly two minutes before making the call to put himself at risk.

Wing Po Liu: A♣K♣10♦9♦
Gergo Nagy: A♥A♦K♦3♥

Nagy was ahead with an overpair but the K♥ turn gave Liu the lead with two pair. The 9♠ river changed nothing for either player and Liu collected a gargantuan double up while Nagy was left with less than ten big blinds.

Omar Eljach opened to 300,000 on the button and Wing Po Liu defended his big blind.

Level 27 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Omar Eljach opened to 300,000 on the button and was called by Wing Po Liu in the big blind.

Liu check-called a 300,000 bet from Eljach on the 2♥Q♣6♦ flop and then a 1,320,000 bet from Eljach on the 3♣ turn.

The Q♥ completed the board and Liu checked to Eljach once more. Eljach bet enough to put Liu all in for his last 1,500,000 and Liu called after a bit of deliberation.

Eljach showed K♣8♣5♣2♠ for a bluff and Liu turned over K♠Q♦5♦4♥ for trip queens, which was good for the double up.

Player	Chips	Progress
Omar Eljach	7,600,000 -2,700,000	-2,700,000

Level 27 : Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Omar Eljach opened to 300,000 from under the gun and Anson Tsang three-bet to 960,000 from the button. Eljach made the call.

The flop came K♥Q♣8♥ and Eljach moved all in, covering Tsang's remaining stack of 880,000. Tsang made the call and was at risk.

Anson Tsang: A♥A♦9♥2♦
Omar Eljach: 10♦8♦5♥4♥

Tsang was in excellent shape to score a double with his overpair and dominating flush draw. He remained ahead on the A♠J♣ turn and river to score a full double up.

Eljach has now doubled up all four of his remaining opponents over the course of the current level.
