Stud Hi-Lo
Donovan Bates: XxXx/8♥Q♠Q♦2♣/Xx
Nicholas Blumenthal: XxXx/4♦3♦9♣6♦/Xx
Chris Wallace: XxXx/5♥10♣A♥5♦ ~ folded on sixth street
Action was picked up on fourth street, with Nicholas Blumenthal opting to bet when checked to. Both Chris Wallace and Donovan Bates stuck in the call, before action checked through on fifth.
Bates checked for a third time on sixth street, and Blumenthal picked up the betting again, as he slid a chip forward. Wallace thought for a bit before folding, but Bates stuck around with a call.
On seventh street, Bates check-called another bet, and saw the bad news as his opponent tabled J♦7♦2♠ for a flush and a low, which scooped.
