Three for Kovalchuk, Who Regains Lead

Omaha-8

  • George Danzer had the button, and raised. Oleksii Kovalchuk made it three bets, and Danzer called. The flop was {j-Diamonds}{8-Hearts}{3-Hearts}, and Kovalchuk led out. Danzer called. Both players checked when the {j-Hearts} turned, and the {q-Spades} completed the board. Kovalchuk check-called a bet, and Danzer showed two nines. Kovalchuk tabled {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{2-Clubs}, and won the pot.

  • Kovalchuk had the button and raised. Danzer called, and the flop came {a-Hearts}{q-Spades}{5-Spades}. Danzer check-called a bet, and the turn was the {9-Hearts}. Danzer check-called another bet, and the river brought the {2-Clubs}. Danzer check-folded this time, and Kovalchuk raked in the pot.

  • A few hands later, Kovalchuk had the button and raised again. Danzer defended, and the dealer fanned {a-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}. Danzer check-called a bet. The turn was a third six - the {6-Diamonds} - and Danzer check-called another bet. The {k-Clubs} completed the board, and Danzer check-called one last bet. Kovalchuk tabled {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{7-Clubs} for sixes full of queens, and Danzer released.
