One For Binger

Omaha/8

The player sitting under the gun limped, Michael Binger raised from middle position, the player sitting to Binger's left in the hijack seat called, Tuan Le called from the button, the blinds folded, and the original limper called.

The flop came {5-Clubs}{Q-Clubs}{A-Diamonds}. It checked to Binger who bet, the hijack folded, Le called, and the UTG player called as well. The turn was the {Q-Hearts}. It checked to Binger who again bet, and this time only Le called.

Both checked the {J-Hearts} on the river. Binger opened his hand -- {A-Spades}{7-Spades}{4-Spades}{3-Hearts} -- then opened his hands, non-verbally saying "it ain't much." His pair of aces were enough, though, as Le mucked.

Binger has 14,200, and Le 31,000.
