With the scores tied up at two a piece, it is time for our next installment of 'Which Game Does ?? Prefer'.
For the tiebreaker, PokerNews caught up with WSOP Bracelet winner and all round poker legend Phil 'The Unabomber' Laak and asked him what game he prefers, No-Limit Hold'em or Pot-Limit Omaha.
"Well" came his reply.
"I just like..............poker!".
Thanks there Phil, for breaking the deadlock and giving us a definitive winner!
That's a wrap for our little game, folks!

PokerNews' Brad Whitehouse captured a hand on Saturday that might end up being the rarest we'll see all summer at the 2025 World Series of Poker (WSOP). At the very least, the rarest chop pot.
Gus Hansen and Dzmitry Urbanovich battled for a hefty pot on Day 2 in Event #23: $10,000 Seven Card Stud Championship with 35 out of 127 players remaining. The pot ended in a chop, but it left future Poker Hall of Famer Nick Schulman in awe.
"I've never seen that before," Schulman, who has seen nearly everything at the poker table, was overheard saying as he glanced at the tabled cards. "Wow, that's an amazing one."
