"The Beats I've Been Taking Are From Outer Space"

Level 2
Nacho Barbero
Nacho Barbero

Pot-Limit Omaha

In a three-way pot on a board of 43A8, John Rogers bet 45,000 and Jesse Lonis called from the next seat, while John Monnette also called.

All three players checked on the 3 river. Rogers showed J852 for a Wheel as Lonis showed Q1052 for the same Wheel as the two chopped up Monnette.

A few tables over, Nacho Barbero could be heard complaining about his summer so far.

"The beats I've been taking are from outer space," he groaned. "But I visualized that I will be winning the tournament today."

"Must have been the $250 daily!' quipped reigning champion Michael Mizrachi.
