Omaha Hi-Lo

Michael Moncek raised from the hijack and Ryan Miller defended his big blind.

Miller proceeded to check-call bets from Moncek on the K♥A♣9♥ flop, 2♠ turn, and J♥ river.

Moncek showed he held a set of aces, but it was no good against Miller's Q♦10♥8♥5♦ for a flush and Miller collected the pot.

Omaha Hi-Lo

Michael Moncek raised from middle position, David Benyamine called in the hijack, Albert Daher three-bet from the button, and both players called.

On the J♦4♠4♦ flop, the action checked to Daher who bet and only Moncek called.

Moncek check-called again on the 4♥ turn.

The river brought the 7♦. Moncek quickly check-called another bet from Daher who revealed A♦9♣4♣2♦ for quad fours as he raked in a big one at Moncek's expense.

Moncek called bets from Seiver on fourth street through sixth street and went into the tank facing a final bet from Seiver on seventh.

"It's really hard for you to have a deuce here," Moncek said.

"I agree," Seiver replied.

Moncek eventually stuck in a call and Seiver said, "Jack," as he tabled his hand. Moncek turned over 5x4x2x for an eight and collected the pot.

Benyamine snapped off another bet on sixth but he took his time on seventh after Daher led for a final time. He eventually tossed in calling chips and got the bad news as Daher's nine-seven was enough to win the pot and leave Benyamine with less than three big bets.
