Alex Bolotin Doubles Thru Kathy Liebert in Dramatic Fashion

(As told to us by Alex Bolotin)

Alex Bolotin opens to 6,000 from the hijack and Kathy Liebert three-bets to 16,000 from the small blind (the player in the big blind folded out of turn to begin the hand). Bolotin four-bets to 45,000 before Liebert five-bets all in. Bolotin, with roughly 40,000 behind, calls all in with [4h][2d].

Liebert is ahead with [AcKd] and takes a commanding lead on the flop as it falls [AhAd8d]. Bolotin picks up a few outs when the [3c] turn falls and gets there when the [5h] river gives him a wheel.

Alex Bolotin – 172,000 (57 bb)
Kathy Liebert – 12,000 (4 bb)
