Omaha Hi-Lo

Ryan Hoenig raised on the button and was three-bet by Yueqi Zhu in the small blind. Anthony Ribeiro called cold in the big blind and Hoenig called as well.

Zhu continued for a bet on the 3♥Q♣8♦ flop and both Ribeiro and Hoenig called.

The 10♥ fell on the turn and Zhu bet again. Ribeiro raised, which got a fold from Hoenig and a reraise from Zhu to put Ribeiro all in for his last 21,000 behind. Ribeiro called and hands were revealed.

Anthony Ribeiro: A♥Q♥J♣6♥ All in
Yueqi Zhu: A♦A♣6♠5♥

Zhu was ahead with his aces, but the Q♦ river sent a jolt through Zhu, who jumped up a bit in his seat, as it improved Ribeiro to trip queens for the double-up.

Both players checked fourth street to fifth street where Kyte check-called a bet from Tanaka.

On sixth street Tanaka bet and Kyte called, with the same action repeating on seventh street.

Tanaka turned over K♦8♦5♥ for kings and jacks, but it was rendered second best by Kyte who had A♦3♥2♦ for aces and sevens.

2-7 Triple Draw

Hiroshi Tanaka raised in middle position. It folded to big blind Sean Akhavi, who defended and drew two cards. Tanaka also needed two new cards, and both players checked afterward.

The second draw saw the opponents draw two each again. Akhavi bet after the draw, and Tanaka called. Akhavi remained pat, Tanaka drew one card, and Akhavi bet after the final draw.

Tanaka tanked a bit before he put in a raise, which was quickly called by Akhavi. Tanaka tabled 8x6x4x3x2x for number six, causing Akhavi to add his cards to the muck.

Pot-Limit Omaha

David Bach opened from the cutoff and was three-bet to 55,000 by Ryan Hoenig in the small blind. Bach called.

Hoenig bet all but a single t-1,000 chip on the 10♠A♣7♠ flop and Bach raised to put him all in.

"You got anything?" Hoenig asked, which got a laugh from everyone at the table.

"Someone bust!" Hoenig shouted.

After a bit of tanking, Hoenig called all in and a showdown was held.

Ryan Hoenig: A♦K♣10♦6♣ All in
David Bach: K♥Q♠J♥10♥

The Q♦ turn filled Bach's Broadway draw, but Hoenig still had outs to a full house with his two pair.

It wasn't meant to be, however, as the Q♣ river bricked out — eliminating Hoenig late in the evening.

Elior Sion raised to 16,000 in late position and Sean Akhavi called in the hijack while David Funkhouser called in the big blind.

The flop rolled out 3♣6♥3♠ and Funkhouser checked over to Sion who bet 16,000 and only Akhavi called.

Both players checked the turn 6♠ to the river 9♦ where Sion bet 45,000 and Akhavi went into the tank.

After some thought, Akhavi put his chips in to call and mucked after seeing Sion turn over K♥9♠ for nines and sixes.

Limit Hold'em

Philip Sternheimer raised from the button, David Bach three-bet from the small blind, and Sternheimer called.

Bach continued on the 8♥6♥4♦ flop before Sternheimer raised, and Bach came along.

Bach check-called a bet on the 3♣ turn before the 8♣ river checked through. Bach tabled A♣9♠ which was enough for the win as Sternheimer mucked.

2-7 Triple Draw

Oliver Tot raised under the gun, Koji Fujimoto three-bet in the hijack, and Yuri Dzivielevski put in a fourth bet on the button. Tot called all-in for 52,000 total, and Fujimoto called as well.

On the first draw, Tot drew one card, Fujimoto took two cards, and Dzivielevski changed one card.

Fujimoto check-called a bet from Dzivielevski before each player took the same number of cards. Fujimoto checked, Dzivielevski bet, and Fujimoto called before Tot and Fujimoto each took one card on the final draw.

Dzivielevski remained pat, and bet after Fujimoto had checked. Fujimoto folded his hand after some thought, and Dzivielevski tabled Qx8x6x3x2x for a queen-low.

Tot had 7x5x4x2x and drew a 6x to make a seven-low and win the main pot.

The flop rolled out J♦3♠9♦ and Vengrin bet 30,000 which saw Hubbard raise to 135,000. Bunch went into the tank for a long time before deciding to toss his hand into the muck and Vengrin called all in for 48,000 total.

Matt Vengrin: K♦J♠8♥3♣ All in
Stephen Hubbard: 10♠9♥9♣7♠
