Liu Picks Up $48K In Heads-Up No-Limit Hold’em Winnings

In some deep-stacked $50/$100 No-Limit Hold’em action on Full Tilt Poker, high stakes young gun Eric Liu had a successful day at the tables. In his first match, Liu faced off against “”Okada Roll” for just 25 hands of action when a final $40K hand had “Okada Roll” leaving the table with a quick $20K loss. Later in the day on table Croton, Liu battled Nick Schulman for a little under an hour with many small pots being traded back and forth. The deciding hand in the match was a $40K pot in Liu’s favor that had him booking a $28K win over Schulman. After 236 total heads-up hands on the day, Liu had earned himself nearly $48K in winnings.
