Andy Bloch Gets Quartered

Andy Bloch's short stack keeps going the wrong way. In a hand with Eli Elezra and one other player, Andy raised on a flop of {A-Hearts}{6-Spades}{2-Diamonds} and got two calls.

After getting raised when the {K-Diamonds} hit the turn, Andy re-raised all in for his last 1,700. Elezra tanked for about 30 seconds before laying down his hand, claiming he folded aces up.

After the river brought the {8-Clubs}, the hands were opened and Andy chopped for the low, while his opponent took the high with two pair.

After the hand, Bloch's stack is down to 9,500.

Annie Duke raised preflop and then Max Pescatori reraised and was all in. Duke made the call.

Showdown
Duke: {A-Hearts} {6-Hearts} {4-Clubs} {2-Clubs}
Pescatori: {A-Spades} {A-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {K-Hearts}

"I have the best hand in Omaha high." said Pescatori.

The dealer then flopped the first three cards... {6-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} {2-Diamonds}.

"That's a really bad flop for you." said Duke as she flopped two pair and a low draw.

The turn came the {7-Hearts} and the river the {3-Hearts}. Pescatori was eliminated with Duke jumping to 62,000 chips.

Nikolay is now down to 5,000 chips.
