The Best Hand Wins

[user75032]

Three pair is generally no good in Omaha Hi/Lo -- except when your opponent also has three pair. Scott Bohlman raised the button preflop and was called by Patrice Boudet from the blinds. On a ragged flop of {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{4-Hearts}

{2-Clubs}

, Boudet check-called a single bet from Bohlman.

Both players checked the {6-Hearts}

{6-Hearts}

turn. When the river fell {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

, Boudet check-called another bet. Bohlman opened {A-Clubs}

{A-Clubs}

{Q-Clubs}

{10-Clubs}

{2-Diamonds}

. He had flopped two pair, tens and deuces, then rivered a bigger two pair, aces and tens. Boudet disgustedly flashed {4-Spades}

{4-Spades}

{6-Clubs}

{A-Spades}

X, having turned sixes and fours and rivered aces and sixes. Aces and tens was a winner.
