Stud Hi-Lo Action at Table #116

Level 5

Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better

Justin Liberto: XxXx / 6102A / Xx
Alexander Kostritsyn: XxXx / 91078 / Xx
Daniel Negreanu: XxXx / AQK - folded on fifth street

Action picked up on fifth as it checked to Kostritsyn who bet. Negreanu folded and Liberto called.

Sixth street checked through before Liberto check-called a final bet from Kostritsyn, who tabled 965 for a straight to win.

Josh Arieh: XxXx / 5K2K / Xx
Matthew Beinner: XxXx / 8325 / Xx
Alexander Kostritsyn: XxXx / Q108K / Xx

The next hand, Beinner completed, Kostritsyn raised, Arieh cold-called, and Beinner called.

On fourth, Arieh checked to Beinner who bet, Kostritsyn raised, Arieh called, Beinner made it three bets, and both opponents called.

Arieh then led on fifth showing three diamonds and got two called. The same occurred on sixth with Arieh leading again.

On seventh, it checked to Beinner who put his final 3,000 into the middle and both opponents called.

Arieh tabled A62 in the hole for kings-up, while Beinner showed AJ6 for six low, and Kostritsyn could not salvage half the pot as he mucked.
