Leffingwell Triples, Cai Takes From Couden
Level 33
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Pot Limit Omaha Hi-Lo
William Leffingwell raised to 200,000 from under the gun and Joey Couden called on the button before Zhen Cai, in the big blind, potted to 850,000. Both opponents called.
The flop came 5♠J♦6♦ and Cai potted again, this time for 2,700,000. Leffingwell called for 900,000 and Couden also announced he was all in, covering Cai who committed his last 1,870,000.
Leffingwell turned over A♠K♣9♦2♦, Cai had A♥A♦8♣6♥ and Couden A♣7♣4♣3♣.
Leffingwell began calling for a diamond and got his wish as the board ran out 10♥K♦, giving him a flush on the river to earn the triple up. Cai took the side pot off Couden with his pair of aces.
