Pot-Limit Omaha

Dylan Weisman limped in from the button and Josh Arieh checked his option.

The flop came 8♦3♣10♣ and Arieh led out for 8,000. Weisman then moved all in for 45,500.

Arieh tanked for a minute before he called and Weisman showed Q♣J♠6♣4♦ for straight and flush draws. Arieh had a pair of kings but instantly tossed his cards into the muck once the 9♣ fell on the turn to give Weisman his flush.

The inconsequential river was the 8♠ and Weisman doubled up.

"Guys, he's very good at PLO so don't try this at home. It works for him because he's very good, but if you limp with this you'll get crushed," tablemate Nacho Barbero said after the hand.

Naoya Kihara raised to 8,000 first-to-act and was called by Shaun Deeb from directly behind.

Both players checked on the K♠8♣10♣ flop and then Kihara bet 13,000 on the 9♠ turn. Deeb called.

It was checked down on the A♠ river and Kihara turned over 7♥6♥5♦4♥ for a ten-high straight. It was no good, however, as Deeb tabled A♥J♣7♠2♥ for a jack-high straight and collected the pot.

Roman Yitzhaki: 5x5x3x / AxAx4x9x
Dan Cates: XxXx / 5xQx6x8x / Xx

Dan Cates bet fourth street against Roman Yitzhaki when the latter paired his ace and Yitzhaki called. Cates bet again fifth street for Yitzhaki to raise and Cates called. On sixth street, Cates check-called and they checked seventh. Yitzhaki showed a nine-five and that was good enough to win the pot.

Pot-Limit Omaha

The rotation switched to PLO and Cates was in the big blind. Marco Johnson raised to 8,000 from under the gun and Cates tossed in his last 8,500 for Johnson to call.

Dan Cates: K♠9♣5♦4♥ All in
Marco Johnson: A♦A♣9♠3♠

The K♦10♥4♣ flop gave Cates two pair, but they were counterfeited with the 10♠ turn. The 3♦ river then sent the two-time Poker Players Championship winner to the rail.

Dario Sammartino was intensely watching the European Championship soccer match between Croatia and his home country of Italy on the big screen, audibly swearing when Italy missed a chance.

"I think when Italians swear, it's the nicest sounding swear," said Chino Rheem.

Meanwhile, Andres Korn opened and Dario Sammartino check-called from the big blind.

Sammartino check-called bets on flop, turn and river of a J♣6♥2♠10♥4♣ board. Korn tabled Q♠J♥10♣9♥ for two pair, with Sammartino taking the low portion of the pot with J♦7♣5x4♥

Phil Hui: XxXx/4x5x6xAx
Nick Guagenti: XxXx/7x3x7xKx - folded on sixth street

Phil Hui completed, Nick Guagenti raised, and Hui called.

Guagenti bet on fourth street and Hui called. Hui then led out on fifth and Guagenti called.

Hui bet again on sixth, sending Guagenti into the tank. "Can I bet on the river before he calls?" Hui joked with the dealer. Guagenti eventually folded and Hui flashed a 3x as he took the pot.

Matthew Ashton has yet to take his seat at this table today, so his stack continues to be blinded down.

"I have nothing," Shakerchi declared and revealed his A♥K♥7♣3♥ for ace-king high and the missed nut low draw.

Wasserson stared at his cards for several seconds and shook his head, then sent them into the muck.
