Crazy Three-Way Split Pot in Rapid Fashion

Level 17 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Omaha Hi-Lo

Ap Garza raised on the button and Scott Bohlman made it three bets in the small blind for Bryce Yockey to four-bet and the five-bet followed as three-way capped action proceeded.. On the {j-Spades}{10-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop, Bohlman checked and Yockey bet for Garza to raise and Bohlman to call. Yockey then reraised and received two calls.

"One of you guys will get hurt," Matthew Gonzales chimed in while the rapid-fire action continued without any break

The {3-Diamonds} on the turn was checked by Bohlman once more and Yockey bet, Garza raised and Bohlman stuck around to then also call a three-bet by Yockey with Garza coming along too. Bohlman had fewer than one full bet behind to the {8-Clubs} river and moved all-in for 95,000. Yockey raised and Garza called as all cards were finally revealed.

Bohlman with the {a-Clubs}{j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{4-Hearts}{2-Clubs} and Yockey with the {a-Diamonds}{k-Spades}{q-Spades}{2-Spades} had the nut low while Garza won half the pot with the {k-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} for the high pot with his two pair.

Bohlman Short Again

Level 17 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Omaha Hi-Lo

Scott Bohlman raised and then called a three-bet by Bryce Yockey before surrendering post flop when facing the aggression of Yockey, who then won another pot in very quick succession.

Bohlman then three-bet in the big blind and Daniel Weinman called. On the {j-Spades}{10-Spades}{2-Diamonds} flop, Bohlman check-called a bet and check-folded the {10-Diamonds} turn as his stack was cut short again.

Cates Folds River to Paur

Level 17 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Taylor Paur
Taylor Paur

Omaha 8 or Better

Taylor Paur raised under the gun and was called by Matthew Ashton on the button and Dan Cates in the big blind.

On the {6-Hearts}{5-Spades}{3-Clubs} flop, Cates checked and Paur bet. Ashton folded, but Cates came along to see the turn.

The board paired with the turned {6-Spades}, and after Cates checked again, Paur bet once more. Cates again called to see the river.

Cates again checked on the {9-Clubs} river, then said "sheesh" as Paur put out another bet. Cates folded quickly and the pot was pushed to Paur as he moves back toward the three million chip mark.

Razz

Matthew Gonzales: {7-}{2-} / {4-}{10-}{4-}{2-} / {a-}
Scott Bohlman: {6-}{a-} / {5-}{a-}{5-}{10-} / {a-}

Matthew Gonzales completed and then called the all-in of Scott Bohlman on third street for 160,000 total. Both somehow ended up with two pair until fifth sixth street and Gonzales then hit an ace on seventh to make a ten-seven.

Bohlman glanced at his card, had a dry smile on the face and exposed the case {a-Spades} as he made a full house ... in Razz, ending his tournament in 16th place for a payday of $83,738.

David "ODB" Baker Eliminated in 15th Place ($83,738)

Level 17 : 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante

Razz

David "ODB" Baker: {a-}{8-}/{7-}{q-}{j-}{k-}/{a-}
Koray Aldemir: {6-}{5-}/{j-}{3-}{9-}{3-}/{8-}

Koray Aldemir defended his bring-in to David "ODB" Baker's completion from his short stack.

On fourth street, Aldemir took the betting lead and Baker called.

Fifth street saw things get worse for Baker as he picked up another paint card, while Aldemir got a {9-}. Aldemir bet again and with just 170,000 left, Baker opted to continue on.

Sixth street paired Aldemir, and Baker's king wasn't exactly a help either, but he committed the last of his chips. Unfortunately for him, he was already drawing dead to Aldemir's jack low which improved to a nine on seventh street

Racener Faces Check-Raise

Level 18 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante

Pot-Limit Omaha

After John Racener raised on the button and Benny Glaser defended his big blind, the duo saw a flop of {4-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{a-Clubs}. Glaser then check-raised Racener's continuation bet of 80,000 to 250,000 and Racener called.

On the turn {6-Spades}, Glaser bet 370,000, which sent Racener briefly into the tank. After about a minute of deliberation, he opted to fold, keeping his stack above a million chips.

Gonzales Doubles Through Garza

Level 18 : 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Matthew Gonzales
Matthew Gonzales

Pot-Limit Omaha

Matthew Gonzales limped blind on blind and called a raise to 90,000 from Ap Garza.

The flop came {j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{2-Clubs} and Gonzales bet 200,000 leaving himself 135,000 behind. Garza contemplated his decision, with Gonzales even throwing in the rest of his stack as a joke.

He then took the 200,000 and placed it in front of Garza's stack. Garza proceeded to pick the 200,000 chips up and add them to the stack and returned them to the pot along with 200,000 of his own, calling the bet.

The turn was the {q-Spades} and Gonzales put the rest of his 135,000 in. Garza called.

"Straight," said Gonzales showing {10-Hearts}{8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Clubs} and Garza showed {k-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}. The river {j-Spades} bricked and Gonzales doubled up.
