Action was picked up in a pot between Benny Glaser in the big blind and Allen Kessler in early position with the betting having been capped before the flop.

The flop rolled out 8♦7♣3♦ and Glaser bet which Kessler called.

On the turn K♥, Glaser bet once more and Kessler called with the same action repeating on the 8♥ river.

Glaser tabled A♥A♦K♠2♦ for aces up with the nut-low and Kessler tabled A♣A♠9♦6♣ for aces up with a worse low, leaving Glaser to take three quarters of the pot.

Level 9

Omaha Hi-Lo

Action was picked up in a four-way pot with David "Bakes" Baker in the big blind and Andres Korn in first position.

The flop of A♠K♠6♦ saw action check to the early position player who moved all in, getting three callers.

On the turn K♦, Baker checked to Korn who bet and everyone else folded.

Early Position: A♣Q♦8♠3♦ All in
Andres Korn: K♣Q♠10♣2♠

The river 9♦ changed nothing and Korn's three kings with a queen was good for the pot.

Level 9

Omaha Hi-Lo

On a K♣5♠5♥ board Max Kruse check-called a bet from Chris Vitch. The pair checked the 5♦ turn and the 5♣ completed the board.

Kruse check-called a bet from Vitch, who tabled 2♠2♥J♥A♣ for a full house, fives full of deuces.

Kruse then turned over A♦A♥9♠7♠ for a better full house and took down the pot.

There was some conversation about whether Kruse had the nuts with fives full of aces, before someone at the table clarified that the nuts would have been pocket kings, for kings full of fives.
