Omaha Hi-Lo

Phil Hellmuth raised in early position and Kevin Choi called on the button.

Hellmuth bet on the flop of A♥4♦10♦ and Choi called, and the same action took place on the 5♠ turn. Hellmuth bet once more on the Q♠ river and Choi called.

Hellmuth showed A♣10♣7♣3♣ for aces up and a seven low, which was good for three quarters as Choi showed the same low with A♦8♣7♠3♥.

"Station," Choi laughed after his call-down.

Omaha Hi-Lo

Tobias Hausen raised under the gun, and Jon Kyte and Kevin Choi called in the blinds. It checked to Hausen on the 5♣K♠6♥ flop, and he fired a bet. Kyte and Choi both called to the 3♠ turn, where Hausen bet again after two checks.

Kyte still called, but Choi gave up and mucked. Kyte check-called one more time on the 5♠ river, but only got half of his chips back when his A♣10♦8♥4♦ got quartered by Hausen's A♥K♥K♦4♥.

Omaha Hi-Lo

Phil Hellmuth raised in the hijack and Jason Daly defended his big blind.

Daly checked on the flop of Q♦9♠Q♥ and Hellmuth checked back. Daly checked again on the 7♦ turn and Hellmuth bet. Daly tanked and then called.

Daly then led with a bet on the 5♥ river and Hellmuth called. Daly showed A♣8♥6♠6♣ for a rivered straight and Hellmuth mucked K♠K♥10♣Xx in frustration before taking a lap while waving his hands in the air.

"They f***ing play so bad," Hellmuth said quietly to himself. "You check back the flop ... Ah, you can't help yourself ... alright, if you want to give me the chips, I accept, Jason. Give me the f***ing chips. If you want to do weird f***ing sh**, good luck. If you guys want to overbet, and overbet and overbet, go ahead."
