Liu Locks with Lopez

Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Christina Lopez raised from under the gun and action folded to Xuan Liu who moved all in for around 41,000 from the big blind. Lopez made the call and the players flipped their cards.
Xuan Liu: J?J?
Christina Lopez: A?Q?
Liu was ahead with a pair of jacks but the 8?K?3? flop brought in a small sweat as Lopez picked up a backdoor flush and straight draw.
Lopez missed on the 2? turn and 8? river, keeping Liu in the tournament with double the chips.
