The Katz Is Not Out of the Bag

Level 7
Aaron Katz
Aaron Katz

Pot-Limit Omaha

Roy Thung raised to 7,000 and David "ODB" Baker called in the big blind, then check-folded the K92 flop when Thung continued for 11,000.

One hand later, Aaron Katz limped in from the hijack and called a raise to 13,500 by Ariel Mantel in the cutoff. On the J93 flop, Katz checked and Mantel bet the pot for 34,500. Katz mulled it over for a short while and then called all-in for 30,500.

Aaron Katz: A1086 All in
Ariel Mantel: QQ86

The K turn and 7 river improved Katz to a straight for the double.
