Liperis Spikes River to Nearly Triple
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Yiannis Liperis opened to 10,000 in the hijack, Lei Wang flatted the button, and Lars Kamphues moved all in for 138,000 in the small blind. The big blind folded to Liperis who got a count and rejammed for 187,000, and Wang called with the covering stack after a brief deliberation.
Lars Kamphues: 
Yiannis Liperis: 
Lei Wang: 
The 
flop made a double knockout the likely result as the 
fell on the turn, but the 
spiked the river to keep Liperis' tournament life alive with a healthy stack, while Kamphues was eliminated.
