Big O
Four ways on a flop of A♠8♣5♠, Naween Fernando checked from the small blind and Chris Lee checked from the big blind to Ariel Mantel, who bet 320,000 from the hijack. Brian Battistone called in the cutoff, Fernando folded, and Lee called.
It was again checked to Mantel, who moved all in for his last 1,100,000 on the 6♦ turn. Battistone also moved all in and Lee called to put both players at risk.
Ariel Mantel: A♣A♦J♥8♥3♥
Brian Battistone: A♥K♠7♦7♠2♣
Chris Lee: Q♣9♣7♥6♣4♥
The board completed with the Q♦ — leaving Lee's straight best for the high and Battistone with the low to eliminate Mantel in 10th place.
