Demaskey Makes Courtesy Show

Level 22 : 20,000/40,000, 0 ante
Sandra Demaskey
Sandra Demaskey

Playing Omaha/8:

On a flop of {k-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} Sandra Demaskey (sb) bet 20,000 and Vincent Basilicata (button) struggled a bit before making the call.

When the {j-Spades} came on the turn, Demaskey again fired, this time 40,000, and again Basilicata tanked, struggling with his decision, counting out his remaining chips (65,000).

After Demaskey offered to show, Basilicata begrudgingly folded what he said was pocket aces. Demaskey showed her {a-}{k-}{q-}{j-} for two pair as she took the pot.

Level 22 : 20,000/40,000, 0 ante
Rolf Andersen
Rolf Andersen

Playing Omaha/8:

On the river with a board reading {j-Spades}{4-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{j-Clubs}, Sandra Demaskey tabled {a-Clubs}{8-Spades}{3-Clubs}{2-Hearts} for the nut low and pair of treys. Chip leader Rolf Andersen showed {a-Spades}{9-Spades}{4-Clubs}{2-Clubs} for the same nut low and a pair of aces for the high. He got three-quarters of the pot and Demaskey only got one-quarter after splitting the low.

Andersen extended his chip lead while Demaskey's stack took a hit, leaving her with about 5.5 big bets.

Playing Omaha/8:

On a flop of {k-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}{3-Clubs} Vincent Basilicata (sb) checked, Roland Israelashvili moved in for his last 17,000, then Andrew Dudley (button) raised. Basilicata moved all-in, so the hands were tabled:

Vincent Basilicata: {a-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds} - nut low draw, pair of treys
Roland Israelashvili: {a-Clubs}{q-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} - pair of eights, low draw
Andrew Dudley: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{5-Hearts} - top pair, low draw

The final two cards fell {10-Hearts}{3-Diamonds} and Basilicata made trips for the high and no low was possible, so he scooped it all. Israelashvili was eliminated in seventh place, earning $885.
