Livingston Makes a Big Fold, Then Cracks Aces
Level 20
: Limits 30,000/60,000, 0 ante
Omaha Hi-Lo
Alex Livingston raised from the cutoff, Brian Yoon three-bet in the small blind, and Livingston called.
The flop came K♠6♦6♥ and Yoon continued with a bet. Livingston called, then called another bet on the K♣ turn.
The river came the 9♣ and Yoon bet again. Livingston tanked for about a minute before folding A♣6♣.
The next hand, Phil Hellmuth three-bet in the big blind and Livingston again called out of the hijack.
The flop came 4♠8♦A♦ and Livingston got his last chips in the middle. Hellmuth had A♥A♣J♣7♦, while Livingston had A♠Q♥5♥3♥.
The 7♣ turn and 6♠ river gave Livingston a straight and he doubled up.
"I feel better about the fold now that I doubled up," Livingston said.
