Liu Bubbles the Tournament
Level 18
: Blinds 10,000/15,000, 15,000 ante
Dennis Weiss raised to 55,000 from early position and Wing Po Liu defended from the big blind.
Liu check-called a bet of 40,000 from Weiss on the J?3?8? flop.
The K? came on the turn which Liu checked. Weiss bet 140,000 and Liu check-jammed for 408,000. Weiss thought it over for a few minutes before making the call.
Wing Po Liu: K?K?9?3? 
Dennis Weiss: A?K?3?2?
Liu was ahead with his top set of kings and just had to fade a heart on the river to double. However, the dealer peeled of the 9? on the river to give Weiss the nut flush, and Liu was sent to the rail as the bubble boy of the tournament.
