Liz Lieu (born August 2, 1974 in Vietnam) is a Vietnamese professional poker player.
Lieu was primarily a limit Texas hold 'em cash games player for a number of years, before embracing tournament play at the 2005 World Series of Poker. When John Phan encouraged her to enter the $1500 no-limit hold'em event, she ended up in fifth place with over $168,000 in prize money. She went on to place 12th in the $5000 no-limit hold'em event the same year and cashed in the $3000 tournament as well.
The next stop was the Bellagio's 2005 Festa Al Lago tournament, where she placed fourth in the $2500 no limit hold'em event and 16th in two other top tournaments in the series, taking home more than $80,000 for less than a week's worth of work. She went on to finish in the top ten spots at the World Poker Finals, Five Diamond World Poker Classic, and the Gold Strike World Poker Open.
Lieu's first tournament win came at the 2006 L.A. Poker Classic at Commerce Casino, where she won the $1000 limit hold'em event. Her second tournament win came when she won the same event in 2007.
In 2006, Lieu was honored by the WSOP and ESPN as a "Final Table Grand Marshall" along with Johnny Chan.
Back in September 2007 Lieu signed an exclusive partnership with Chilipoker and acts as an Ambassador for the poker room.
As of 2010, Lieu has earned over $825,000 in live tournament play.[1]
In 2009, she appeared in Hong Kong movie Poker King as herself.

Make You Believe
by: Lucy HalePlug in the mic, open the curtains
Turn on the lights, I'm through rehearsing
The feeling ignites, I'm in control
The crowds in the palm of my hands
All my fans stand, what is the truth?
What's an illusion?
You're searching for proof
But are you certain?
Whatever you see is what you get
If words paint a picture then
I betcha I can getcha yet
I'll make you believe in me
I can be what you want me to be
Tonight is the night
Where I make you see
That I can be anything
Anything, anything
I'll make you believe in me
I can be what you want me to be
Tonight is the night
Where I make you see
That I can be anything
Anything, anything
I got nothing to lose, I've been exposed
I'm paying my dues, playing the role
I'm breaking the rules, flowing the flow
I've got the whole world nodding "yes"
Like some bobble heads
I'll break a sweat, if you wanna
Confess all your sins, you know you got 'em
The rooms in a spin, the fever's pitched
I swear there's no doubt I'm legit
I'm no counterfeit
I'll make you believe in me
I can be what you want me to be
Tonight is the night
Where I make you see
That I can be anything
Anything, anything
I'll make you believe in me
I can be what you want me to be
Tonight is the night
Where I make you see
That I can be anything
Anything, anything
I'm not shy, boy
I can be what you want
Your bright shiny toy
You just have to respond
The clock never stops
But baby, it's time
There's no doubt in my mind
That I can make you believe
I can be what you want me to be
Tonight is the night
Where I make you see
That I can be anything
Anything, anything
I'll make you believe in me
I can be what you want me to be
Tonight is the night
Where I make you see
That I can be anything
Anything, anything
I'll make you believe in me
I can be what you want me to be
Tonight is the night
Where I make you see
That I can be anything
Anything, anything
I'll make you believe in me
I can be what you want me to be
Tonight is the night
Where I make you see
That I can be anything
Anything, anything
