Omaha Hi-Lo

Ryan Hoenig raised in the cutoff and Richard Green called in the small blind with Renan Bruschi calling in the big blind.

The flop rolled out K♦J♥5♣ and Green bet which saw both of his opponents call.

On the turn 4♣, Green bet once more and both Hoenig and Bruschi called.

Green bet on the river 7♠ and Bruschi called while Hoenig raised. Green called and Bruschi sighed before calling as well.

Hoenig turned over 7♦6♥3♣2♣ for a seven-high straight and the third nut low which elicited both of his opponents to muck their cards.
