The Story So Far

Play has switched back to Omaha, and with the exception of the two early elimination hands, play has been rather timid so far. The players appear to be feeling each other out to some extent. Allen Cunningham raised maybe seven or eight times in that half hour, making it 25,000 each time, and each time winning the blinds. Only once did he get played back at, when Kyle Hegeman reraised him to 75,000. Cunningham ducked out, flashing {A-?} {6-?}.

Besides Cunningham, Kloeckner has been the other active player. He, too, has put in numerous 25,000-chip raises and won the blinds each time. Lennart Holtkamp is the only other player, apart from those two, who has raised multiple pots. Each time he raises, he buries his head in his hands, elbows on the rail, defying the attempts of his tablemates to get a read on him.

It will be interesting to see how play develops in the next half hour of Omaha.
