Omaha Hi-Lo

From the button Brendan Taylor raised. David Brookshire called from the big blind.

"Let's see a flop," Brookshire said.

The flop was {10-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{6-Clubs} and Brookshire checked. Taylor bet. Brookshire made it two bets. Taylor made it three bets. Brookshire made it four bets and Taylor called all in for less.

David Brookshire: {8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{6-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}
Brendan Taylor: {Q-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{8-Hearts}{6-Spades}

Taylor flopped two pair, but Brookshire flopped the nuts with a straight. Brookshire needed to fade the board pairing to lock up his first bracelet and he did on the {4-Spades} turn and the {8-Spades} river. That meant that Taylor would be eliminated while Brookshire took down Event #46 winning $214,291 and his first gold bracelet.

For his second-place finish, Brendan Taylor collected $132,443.
