Level 7

Omaha-8

Jen Harman raised with the button, Dario Alioto defended his big blind, and the flop fell {2-Spades}{a-Clubs}{5-Hearts}. Alioto check-called a bet from Harman, and the turn was the {6-Spades}. Both players checked.

The river was the {a-Hearts}, and Alioto check-raised Harman. She called, then mucked when Alioto tabled {a-Diamonds}{2-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{6-Hearts} for aces full of deuces, and no low.
