Omaha Hi-Lo

Benny Glaser raised in the cutoff which saw Travis Pearson call on the button and David Shmuel call in the big blind.

Shmuel lead out the flop of Q♠K♦7♦ and only Glaser called.

On the turn 5♦, Shmuel bet a second time and Glaser called again.

The river peeled off a 9♣ and Shmuel bet once more, with Benny sighing as he put in the call.

"Ace-king," Shmuel said as he briefly flashed A♦K♣10♥10♠, which was second best to Glaser holding A♠6♦5♥2♦ for a flush.

The very next hand Glaser raised in the hijack and Shmuel called in the small blind.

The flop rolled out A♣9♣Q♥ and Shmuel check-called a bet from Glaser.

On the turn 7♠, Glaser bet a second time after Shmuel checked and once more Shmuel called.

Shmuel checked the river 9♦ and Glaser bet a third time, which had Shmuel shaking his head as he tossed his hand into the muck.
