Dickstein Loses One After Dinner

Omaha-8

We arrived at Table 447 and a {10-Diamonds}{a-Diamonds}{k-Spades} flop was showing, with four people still involved in the hand. Daniel Fuhs led, the next player to act folded, Yuval Bronshtein folded and Mark Dickstein called.

On the {7-Spades} turn, Fuhs bet and Dickstein tank called. The {9-Clubs} on the river and Fuhs again bet. Dickstein again went into the tank, this time even apologizing to the table. Eventually he called and Fuhs tabled {4-Hearts}{9-Spades}{j-Diamonds}{q-Spades}, with the flopped broadway straight enough to take the pot away from Dickstein.

Hooman Takes the Pot

Omaha-8

When we arrived at Table 453, a {6-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{j-Spades}{6-Clubs} board was already on the felt and Hooman Nikzad was set to act, betting into Tom Schneider. A few moments and Schneider would make it two bets to go. Nikzad called and the {k-Spades} river was dealt.

This time when Nikzad bet, Schneider simply called. Nikzad then tabled his {k-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{a-Hearts}, with the broadway straight enough to rake in the pot. Schneider showed a {6-} and mucked the rest of his cards.
