Buchalter Chops While Playing Great
Level 7
Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better
With the flop coming 10♠10♥7♣ and action checked to him, Max Pescatori bet under the gun. He received three callers - Kevin Gerhart from the button, Paul Volpe from the small blind, and Yehuda Buchalter from the big blind.
The turn came 2♥, and action was again checked to Pescatori. He led out, with only Buchalter calling.
The 8♥ river saw Buchalter check-call a final bet. Pescatori turned over A♣A♦6♦4♣ for two pair with an eight-seven.
"Can I just show two of my cards?" asked Buchalter, revealing Q♥7♥ for a flush to take the high. He then turned over his other two cards, Q♦Q♠, to a couple of laughs from the table.
"You're playing great," quipped Jen Harman.
