Limit Hold'em

A player in middle position raised and action folded to Ted Forrest in the cutoff, who three-bet. It was folded back to the original raiser, who made it four bets to go. Forrest called.

Forrest called bets from his opponent on the 3♣4♣6♣ flop and 7♥ turn and then both players checked down on the 10♦ river.

Forrest's opponent showed A♣K♥ for just ace-high, which was no good against the 2♥2♠ of Forrest, who dragged the pot.

Level 3

Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better

A player raised from middle position and was called by Kao Saechao in the hijack and Chino Rheem in the big blind.

The flop came Q♣8♥6♥ and it was checked to the preflop raiser, who bet. Saechao raised and Rheem called cold from the big blind. The initial bettor called as well.

Everyone checked on the 7♦ turn and then Rheem led out for a bet when the 4♣ completed the board. Only the middle-position player called.

Rheem turned over Q♥10♦9♠8♠ for top two pair and his opponent turned over A♠J♥7♣2♦ for the low and they chopped up up the pot.
