Omaha Hi-Lo
Dario Alioto limped under the gun, and Tom Koral called from the cutoff. Nicolas Barthe came along from the button, Tom McCormick did the same from the small blind, and then Ofi Mor exercised his option from the big by raising to 6,000.
All of his opponents called and it was five-way action to the flop of 7♥10♣A♥.
McCormick checked, Mor bet, and Alioto raised, which prompted Koral to get out of the way. Barthe then called, as did McCormick, and Mor put in the additional 3,000 to see the K♣ turn.
Three checks saw Barthe bet 6,000, and three calls ensued including Alioto calling off for his last 5,000, which created a 3,000 side pot.
McCormick then checked the 6♦ river, Mor bet 6,000, and Barthe called. McCormick thought for a long time but eventually released his hand.
Dario Alioto: A♣4♥2♥8♠ 
Nicolas Barthe: Q♣J♣9♠4♠
Ofir Mor: A♦2♦2♠3♥
Barthe had the high, Mor the low, and Alioto was ousted from the tournament.

Stud Hi-Lo
Chris Hunichen: 3♠5♣ / 4♥Q♥2♥10♠ / Q♣
DJ Buckley: 7♦4♠ / 6♣2♦9♥2♠ / J♠
Chris "Big Huni" Hunichen brought it in, and Minnesota's DJ Buckley, who last year drew a $1,000,000 bounty in the Mystery Bounty event, completed. Hunichen called and then check-called a bet on fourth.
Hunichen bet out after taking the lead on fifth and then Buckley checked sixth after taking the lead.
Hunichen bet and Buckley called off his last 5,000 with what turned out to be a pair of deuces and a low draw. He was actually ahead of Hunichen, who didn't have a pair and was drawing to a low of his own.
Hunichen showed first after he received the Q♣ on seventh for a pair of queens, and it wound up being good as Buckley failed to improve with the J♠.
