Ten-pin Bowled

“You’d have to run that seven times for it to be fair” said Phill Hellmuth to Neil Channing shortly after his fairly brutal elimination. He got it in almost as good as you can in PLO versus Roberto Romanello but to no avail.

Romanello raised to 900 from UTG and called when Channing pushed for 3,050 from the button. Romanello made the call with {10-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{6-Hearts} but was facing a very dominating {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{10-Clubs}{3-Hearts}. “Oh, you’ve got my ten have you?” said the Welshman a split second before the flop came {5-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}{8-Spades} bringing the case ten. The turn came {8-Diamonds} and river {2-Hearts} to confirm Channing’s exit. The Welshman up to 34,000 as a result.
