Barny Scooped

Kirk Morrison, scooper.
Kirk Morrison, scooper.
Omaha/8 -- sorry for the ambiguity of the title -- it meant that he was scooped, losing a little chunk of his 22K stack...

The Hendon Mobster found himself in a three-way pot with Kirk Morrison and Per Erik Loeff, all three of them coming along for the ride on a flop of {6-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{10-Spades} (in-position Morrison betting). A fourth player had reached the flop, perilously short-stacked Bruno Fitoussi, who thought for a while before deciding that this was not the hand on which to commit his remaining 1,600 chips.

The turn: {A-Spades}. Now Kirk Morrison bet when it was checked to him (800) and got just one player calling: Small blind Boatman. The river brought the {7-Hearts} and again Barny Boatman check-called a bet, showing {A-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{4-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}.

"I don't have a low..." advised Morrison.

"I knew I didn't like that ace," he said as Kirk Morrison's {K-Spades}{J-Diamonds}{A-Hearts}{10-Diamonds} took the whole lot anyway.
