Omaha Hi-Lo

Ryan Moriarty raised in the small blind and Rolf Andersen raised in the big blind to see Moriarty call.

The flop rolled out Q♦3♠2♥ and Moriarty check-called a bet from Andersen.

Moriarty bet 5,000 effective on the turn 10♣ and Andersen called to put himself at risk.

Rolf Andersen: A♥K♠5♦2♠ All in
Ryan Moriarty: J♠10♠5♥3♣

Andersen held the low draw and plenty of scoop outs while Moriarty had turned tens and threes. It further improved to tens full of threes on the river 10♥ and Andersen fell one shy of the final table.

Stud

Ryan Moriarty completed and Wayne Stock raised to see Moriarty call.

Wayne Stock: 10♥3♠/10♦5♥6♥7♣/Xx All in
Ryan Moriarty: Q♥8♣/A♥8♠J♠7♥/Xx

Moriarty check-called a bet on fourth street from Stock.

Stock prematurely put in his last 13,000 in on fifth street before Moriarty had checked, and Moriarty called to put him at risk.

"Do I have to look?" asked Stock as seventh street came around.

"Yes you do," Moriarty replied as he turned over a J♥ to make jacks and eights against Stock's pair of tens. Stock looked down, hoping to find a four or ten to survive, but he peeled over a Q♣ and became the day's second casualty.

Esther Taylor

No-Limit Hold'em

After losing a pot in the prior round of 2-7 Triple Draw to Wayne Stock, Esther Taylor was down to her last few chips as the game turned to No-Limit Hold'em.

She was forced all in from the big blind for her last 4,000 and Michael Falk opened to 8,000 from the cutoff to see everyone else fold.

Esther Taylor: Q♥J♠ All in
Michael Falk: 7♠7♣

Some help came in the form of a straight draw on the flop of 10♦9♠5♥, but the runout failed to improve her as the board rolled out A♦2♦, leaving Taylor as the first player to bust from today's affair.

2-7 Triple Draw

Esther Taylor raised all in for 14,500 from under the gun and both Jeffery Gibson in the cutoff and Wayne Stock in the big blind called.

The first draw saw Stock draw three, Taylor draw two, and Gibson draw one.

Stock drew two while both Taylor and Gibson drew one.

On the final draw, Stock drew one, Taylor stood pat, and Gibson drew one.

"Looks like you triple up," Gibson said as action checked through the final round as it had done the two rounds prior.

Taylor turned over 9x7x6x3x2x and both of her opponents mucked, ceding Taylor the pot.
