Joseph Lebrun Eliminated in 3rd Place ($123,617)
Level 30
: Blinds 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Justin Liberto opened to 550,000 in the small blind and was called by Jospeh Lebrun in the big blind.
Liberto continued for 325,000 on a flop of and Lebrun made the call to send the two players to the turn.
The turn came , prompting Liberto to fire a second barrel of 1,150,000. That bet was still not enough to convince Lebrun to go away as he again just called.
The river completed the board and, after some thought, Liberto moved all in. That sent Lebrun deep into the tank as he pondered his decision for several minutes. Eventually he called off for his tournament life and tabled but that was no good as Liberto held to send Lebrun crashing out of the tournament in 3rd place and setup heads-up play between Liberto and Caitlyn Cobb.
