Straight Flush vs Quads in $600 PLO
Pete Wigglesworth came up to PokerNews on break with a hand he'd played in Event #15: $600 Deepstack PLO, and what a hand it was.
According to Wigglesworth, he opened with A♦A♠J♠9♦ and his oppponent Miguel Torres called.
Wigglesworth flopped top set on A♥5♠3♣ and Torres check-called a bet of 4,500. The turn A♣ improved Wigglesworth to quads, and both players checked.
The 2♣ completed the board and Torres bet 10,000. Wigglesworth just called, with Torres turning over K♣Q♥5♣4♣ for a straight flush and taking down the pot.
"How did I not go broke in that hand?" Wigglesworth said. The good news is that he didn't, and he still sits with approximately 52,000 on the first break of the day.
PokerNews live reporting on this event will begin on Day 2.
