Bubble Bursts In Mixed Hi-Lo

Level 17
Jon Turner
Jon Turner

Omaha Hi-Lo

With just one more player to go until the in-the-money phase of the tournament, dealers had been asked to pause the deal at the completion of the hand, with hand-for-hand set to ensue.

Action was picked up on the river, with Jon Turner all in, and tablemates Mark Rubbathan and Donovan Bates still holding live cards. The board read J6982 and all cards were put onto their backs.

Jon Turner: AAQJ All in
Donovan Bates: A942
Mark Rubbathan: Q932

Turner's aces had been cracked, as both of his opponents held two pair. Luckily enough, Ed Smith had busted at another table, and the two shared a min-cash between them, with no hand-for-hand necessary.
