Erik Cajelais
Erik Cajelais

Pot-Limit Omaha

Erik Cajelais raised 600 in early position and was called by the hijack, cutoff, button and big blind.

The dealer fanned a flop of K♠6♠3♣ and once the big blind checked, Cajelais continued for 2,000. Only the button made the call.

When the J♦ hit the turn, Cajelais announced a pot-sized bet of 9,300 and the button called once again.

The 10♦ completed the board on the river and Cajelais jammed for his remaining 7,600. His opponent wasted no time tossing his cards into the muck.

Frank "Skullman" Harrington
Frank "Skullman" Harrington

Pot-Limit Omaha

Frank Harrington, who also goes by the nickname, "Skullman," raised to 500 from early position and was called by a player in middle position and both players in the blinds.

Harrington put out a pot-sized bet of 2,100 on Q♣K♣10♠ and was called only by the player in middle position.

Harrington then committed his remaining chips on the 9♥ turn and was called.

Frank Harrington: Q♥Q♦4♣2♦
Middle Position: J♥9♦9♣6♠

Harrington was behind the flopped straight of the middle position player, but would get the help he needed on the board-pairing K♠ river, winning the hand with a full-house, queens full of kings.
