Omaha -

From the button, Max Pescatori limps in, and Kyle Hegeman raises from the small blind, making it 80,000 to go. Next to him, the other Kyle (Kloeckner) calls, and Pescatori follows suit.

The three men see the flop come down {4-Diamonds} {5-Clubs} {J-Hearts}. Hegeman moves all in for approximately 125,000, and Kloeckner makes the quick call. Pescatori gets out of the way, and the two men show down their hands:

Hegeman: {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {J-Diamonds} {9-Clubs}
Kloeckner: {3-Clubs} {6-Clubs} {8-Diamonds} {9-Diamonds}

The turn brings a straight for Kloeckner when the {7-Spades} falls, leaving Hegeman drawing dead and headed for the door. For his three days' worth of work, Hegeman will be rewarded with $62,015.
