George Danzer takes the chip lead.

Omaha-8

Oleksii Kovalchuk raised on the button, George Danzer three-bet, and Kovalchuk four-bet. Danzer called. The flop was {9-Clubs}{q-Spades}{10-Clubs}, and Danzer check-called a bet. The turn was the {7-Spades}, and Danzer checked again. Kovalchuk bet, and Danzer check-raised. Kovalchuk called.

The river was the {10-Diamonds}, and Danzer led out. Kovalchuk thought for a second, then raised.

"Call," Danzer said immediately.

Kovalchuk mucked his hand in disgust, and Danzer showed {a-Spades}{k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} for kings and tens.

The very next hand, Danzer had the button and raised. Kovalchuk defended, and the flop came {j-Diamonds}{6-Spades}{k-Hearts}. Kovalchuk check-raised Danzer, who called. The turn was the {5-Clubs}, and Kovalchuk led out. Danzer called.

The river was the {8-Hearts}, and Kovalchuk slowed down, checking the Danzer who bet. Kovalchuk folded, and Danzer scooped the pot.
