Zlatin Penev Eliminates Kathy Liebert

Nov 30, 2023

Zlatin Penev opens to 16,000 UTG+1 and action folds around to Kathy Liebert, who three-bets to 73,000 in the big blind. Penev four-bets to 146,000, nearly all of Liebert’s stack, and she calls.

Both players check to Diamond 10Spade 9Heart 4Spade 10 and Liebert puts the last few chips into the middle. Penev calls.

Liebert: Spade 8Heart 8 (two pair, tens and eights)
Penev: Club AHeart A (two pair, aces and tens)

The river is the Club K, changing nothing, and Liebert is knocked out of the tournament by Penev as a result.

Liebert’s elimination brings the field to 72, and the tournament clock pauses to break the final table of the flight. A minute later, another player is eliminated, and we’re one bust out away from making it into the money and ending the flight.

Zlatin Penev – 318,000 (39 bb)
Kathy Liebert – Eliminated
