David Sklansky

Omaha

David Sklansky limped into the pot under the gun, and Najib Bennani followed suit in the next seat. Big stack Daniel Makowsky raised it up to 22,000 next door, and it passed all the way back through the blinds. Sklansky thought for a moment before moving all in for a few thousand more. Bennani ducked out, and Makowsky made the call to put Sklansky at risk.

Showdown
Sklansky: {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{3-Clubs}

{K-Spades}

{J-Spades}

Makowsky:

{A-Diamonds}

{K-Diamonds}

{Q-Clubs}

{10-Diamonds}

The board ran promising but ultimately disappointing for Sklansky as it came {4-Spades}

{4-Spades}

{2-Diamonds}

{9-Spades}

{K-Clubs}

{J-Hearts}

. His kings up were no good to Makowsky's Broadway straight, and the mathematical genius has been sent home in 21st place.
