Bates Scoops the Lot

Level 22

Omaha Hi-Lo

Action was picked up on a flop of 9AJ. Action checked to Nikolai Fal on the button, who bet out. Big blind Richard Bremer check-raised, cutoff Donovan Bates called, before Fal put in a three-bet. Both other players called to see the 10 turn.

Here, action checked to Fal again. His bet got two callers, before all three players checked the 5 river.

Fal tabled AA for top set, but Bates showed 10987 for the low end of the straight to scoop.
