Three Quarters For Lee

Level 31

Omaha Hi-Lo

Chris Lee defended the big blind after Justin Liberto raised from the button.

The flop rolled out A86 and Lee checked over to Liberto who bet. Lee raise and Liberto raised on top of that to see Lee call.

Lee check-called a bet on the turn 2 and action checked through on the river Q.

"Trips," said Lee as he tabled Q332 for a set of threes and a live two. Liberto tabled AK62 for the same live two but a worse high, leaving Lee to take down the pot.

Omaha Hi-Lo

Edward Spivack: A544 All in

Level 31
Brian Battistone
Brian Battistone

Omaha Hi-Lo

Brian Battistone raised on the button and called a three-bet from Naween Fernando in the big blind.

Battistone called a bet from Fernando on the 76K flop and then raised all in for his remaining stack facing another bet from Fernando on the Q turn. Fernando called and a showdown was held.

Brian Battistone: A1076All in
Naween Fernando: AJJ5

Battistone was poised to double up with his two pair, but the K river counterfeited Battistone, leaving Fernando with a better two pair to eliminate Battistone one spot away from the final table.

Ariel Mantel: AAJ83All in
Brian Battistone: AK772All in
Chris Lee: Q9764
