5,000 Ante, 5,000 Bring-In, 20,000 Completion 20,000-40,000 Limits

Omaha Hi-Lo

Jared Bleznick raised from early position and was called by Ryan Miller in the small blind and Brian Breck in the big blind.

On the Q♦J♦10♥ flop, it checked to Bleznick who bet. Miller called, Breck raised, Bleznick made it three bets, Miller four-bet, and both opponents called.

The turn brought the J♠ as it checked to Bleznick once more who bet, Miller raised, Breck folded, and Bleznick called all-in.

Jared Bleznick: A♠K♠Q♠7♥ All in
Ryan Miller: A♦K♣10♠5♦

Both players held broadway but Miller had the redraw to the diamond flush. The dealer peeled the 3♦ on the river as Miller hit his freeroll to eliminate Bleznick in brutal fashion.

Nacho Barbero: 6♦5♠2♣/2♠2♥8♣8♦
Phil Ivey: XxXx/4♣Q♠10♥K♦/Xx

After ante'ing down to a single 5,000 chip in Razz, Daniel Negreanu was forced all in on the first hand of Seven Card Stud.

Phil Ivey and Nacho Barbero called the bring-in and then checked on fourth street.

Ivey called bets from Barbero on fifth through seventh street and Barbero tabled a deuce in the hole for a full house, which got a muck from Ivey.

Negreanu hadn't looked yet, and first peeled the A♠ to improve to trip aces.

Negreanu then flipped over the 8♠, which changed nothing, but slowly peeled his final card, which turned out to be the Q♦ — improving Negreanu to a higher full house to climb to 35,000.
