Could Liu Have Quads?

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

Alexander Massman in the big blind, Joseph Antar under the gun, and Zhao Liu in the hijack had already built a pot of 5,000 on a flop of 78K.

On the 7 turn, Massman fired 6,000, which Antar called. Liu had other plans and made it 18,000. Massman looked at PokerNews and asked, "What do I do now?" After considering his options, he folded his hand.

Antar thought for a few seconds, then called. The river brought the 10.

After a check, Liu increased the heat and fired 76,000, which forced Antar to fold.

As Liu scooped the pot, Massman had to ask him, "Show us your bluff!" Liu responded by surrendering his hand to the dealer and saying, "I had pocket sevens".
