Liberto Picks Off the Bluff

Nick Becker

Nível 9 : Blinds 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

Justin Liberto raised to 3,000 in the hijack and was three-bet by Jordan Glazer on the button to 8,000. Liberto made the call.

The flop came 5♥J♠6♠ and Liberto check-called a bet of 8,000 from Glazer. Action slowed down on the J♦ turn and both players checked to the 5♠ river.

Liberto checked for a third time and Glazer fired out a bet of 15,000. After a brief moment of thought, Liberto flicked in the call.

"Good call, queen high," mentioned Glazer, as he turned over Q♥9♥.

Liberto tabled 8♠8♥ for two pair, jacks and eights.
