Rasmussen Over Woodward

Shamus

Omaha/8

Matt Woodward raised from under the gun, then Thayer Rasmussen, sitting to his left, reraised. It folded back around to Woodward who made the call. The flop came {J-Diamonds}

{J-Diamonds}

{A-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

. Woodward checked, Rasmussen bet, and Woodward called. The turn was the {2-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

, and again Woodward check-called Rasmussen's bet.

The river was the {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

. Once again Woodward checked, Rasmussen bet, and Woodward called. Woodward showed {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{10-Clubs}

{6-Hearts}

{2-Hearts}

-- aces and tens for the high, and no low. Rasmussen turned over {A-Spades}

{A-Spades}

{A-Hearts}

{K-Hearts}

{4-Diamonds}

-- a set of aces, and no low either. Rasmussen took the whole pot, and he's up to 14,000. Woodward, meanwhile, has 2,800, though insists he's still "holding strong."
