Liberto Goes Big
Justin Liberto opened to 20,000 from the cutoff and was called by Tobias Schwecht on the button. Andre Marques then three-bet to 110,000 out of the big blind, receiving a call from Liberto and a fold from Schwecht.
Marques continued for 50,000 on the 2?J?5? flop and was called by Liberto.
There was no slowing down for Marques following the 7? turn as he pushed a bet of 110,000 into the middle. As on the previous street, Liberto flatted.
Marques opted to check once the K? river completed the board. Liberto was not prepared to go to a cheap showdown, instead going big with a bet of 560,000. That sent Marques deep into the tank as he took several minutes to make a decision. Eventually, he chose to lay down his hand to concede the sizable pot to Liberto and put a dent in his own stack.
