Freddy Deeb raises from the hijack to 29,000, Kalpesh Kika calls from the button, and J.J. Liu (pictured) calls from the small blind. The flop comes Heart 10Heart 9Club 8, and it checks to Kika, who bets about 60,000. Liu check-raises all in for about 191,000, and Deeb folds.

Kika calls with Heart 4Heart 2 for a heart flush draw. Liu turns over Spade 8Heart 8 for a set of eights, and she needs it to hold to stay alive.

The turn is the Spade 10, the river is the Heart K, and Liu turns a full house, eights full of tens, to win the pot and double up in chips.
