Sugar Bear on a Roll

Omaha 8/b

Al Barbier seems to be losing small pots and winning big ones. That's a great way to build a chip stack. He three-bet the button after Hani Awad opened with a raise. Awad was the only caller.

Awad checked and called a bet on the {9-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} {k-Spades} flop and another on the {7-Clubs} turn. When the board paired nines on the river, {9-Hearts}, both players checked. Awad had nines and fours with {a-} {5-} {4-} {j-}; that wasn't good enough against Barbieri's tens and nines, {10-} {10-} with two other cards.

Barbieri and Dustin Leary are threatening to blow away the rest of this final table.
