Liperis Turns the Straight
Level 35
: Blinds 200,000/400,000, 400,000 ante
Weiran Pu raised to 800,000 from under the gun and Yiannis Liperis defended his big blind.
They both checked through the 10?9?10? flop to the J? on the turn. Liperis bet 900,000 for Pu to make the call.
The river completed the board with the 5? and the flush draw. Liperis contemplated it for a few seconds and then fired a bet of 1,400,000 out. Pu asked for a confirmation of the amount and the dealer confirmed. He took a bit of time and then flicked in a chip for the call.
Liperis tabled the 8?7? for the turned straight to claim the pot as Pu mucked his hand.
