Liebert Shows Top Set

Nível 10 : 400/800, 100 ante

The action folded around to Kathy Liebert on the button and she raised. The small blind re-raised to 4,000 and Liebert made it 8,000. Her opponent called and they went heads-up to the flop.

The player checked and Liebert moved all in for her last 6,500. Her opponent folded and Liebert showed for top set. "I think he made a good fold" Liebert joked as she dragged in the pot.
