Livingston Eliminated by Cates' Quads

Level 15 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Alex Livingston
Alex Livingston

Pot-Limit Omaha

Dan Cates opened to 30,000 from the cutoff and action folded to Alex Livingston in the big blind, who went all in for his last 49,000. Cates called and hands were revealed.

Dan Cates: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{9-Spades}
Alex Livingston: {a-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}

Livingston was ahead with his kings, but the board ran out {5-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{10-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{k-Hearts} — leaving Cates with quad queens against Livingston's full house.

"Let's switch the turn and the river so it looks like a bad beat!" Elezra joked as Livingston made his exit.

Katz Eliminated by Bronshtein

Level 15 : 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
Cary Katz
Cary Katz

Pot-Limit Omaha

On a flop of {8-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{4-Spades}, Cary Katz bet the size of the pot, approximately 100,000, leaving himself very little behind.

Yuval Bronshtein raised to put Katz all-in, and Katz called.

Cary Katz: {k-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{9-Spades}
Yuval Bronshtein: {j-Hearts}{9-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{3-Hearts}

While Bronshtein had the best made hand with his pair of eights, Katz had a world of draws, including a superior heart flush draw than his opponent.

The {6-Spades}{j-Clubs} runout however brought no help to Katz, as Bronshtein's two pair of jacks and eights took the pot and eliminated Katz.

Anthony Zinno
Anthony Zinno

Pot-Limit Omaha

On a flop of {9-Diamonds}{j-Clubs}{6-Spades}, Anthony Zinno bet and was raised the size of the pot by Chad Campbell. Zinno called, leaving himself just 117,000 behind.

On the {5-Clubs} turn, Zinno moved all-in, and Campbell called.

Anthony Zinno: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{6-Hearts}
Chad Campbell: {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{9-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}

Zinno's set of sixes was well ahead of Campbell's two pair, and the {4-Diamonds} on the river locked up the pot for him to give him a full double-up heading to break.

Chris Vitch
Chris Vitch

Omaha Hi-Lo

Heads-up on a flop of {k-Hearts}{q-Diamonds}{4-Spades}, Eli Elezra was in the big blind and check-called a bet from Chris Vitch in the cutoff.

Elezra led out for a bet on the {8-Diamonds} turn and Vitch called.

Elezra bet again before the {10-Diamonds} completed the board and Vitch called off for the remainder of his chips.

Elezra tabled {a-Diamonds}{6-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds}{2-Clubs} for an ace-high flush, which was good against the {a-Clubs}{k-Spades}{9-Hearts}{7-Spades} of Vitch — who was eliminated.
