Liao Doubles Up Through Kerstetter
Level 28
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Shiina Okamoto folded the button and Jamie Kerstetter pushed all in against the short-stacked Ceci Liao in the big blind. Liao had only 570,000 in chips, under six big blinds, and decided to call.
Ceci Liao: K?4?
Jamie Kerstetter: A?J?
The flop was good for Liao, 4?7?Q?, giving her bottom pair to move her into the lead.
The turn K? gave improved her to two pair, but Kerstetter turned the gutshot and the nut flush draw. She was looking for her fourth knockout of the day; but the river Q? saved Liao and she doubled up.
