Pot-Limit Omaha

Johannes Becker limped in and Elior Sion raised to 480,000, which Becker called. The flop came {7-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Hearts} and Sion continued for 450,000 before Becker forced a fold with a raise to 1,150,000.

The next hand, Sion opened to 480,000 and Becker asked "how much do you have there?" before raising the pot to 1,440,000. Sion called and the flop fell {10-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{6-Clubs}. Becker bet the pot and Sion moved all in, which Becker called with the superior stack.

"What do they have?" the German rail asked and leaned closer to the see the showdown unfold.

Elior Sion: {Q-Spades}{J-Spades}{8-Diamonds}{3-Spades}
Johannes Becker: {K-Clubs}{J-Diamonds}{9-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

The {K-Hearts} turn improved Becker to kings and eights, but Sion got there with the {9-Clubs} river to complete a king-high straight. Sion doubled to 17,270,000 and regained a commanding lead.
