Tonnellier put in a third bet and Hellmuth called. Tonnellier bet out on fourth street and was called by Hellmuth. Hellmuth was dealt an ace on fifth street and opted to check to Tonnellier, who bet. Hellmuth called. “OmahaEd” drew a king on sixth street and bet after Hellmuth checked. As Hellmuth sorted through his chips he asked, “You hit three kings?” Tonnellier replied, “If I hit three kings then why are you calling?” Hellmuth, never content to let anyone else get the last word in, said, “You might have aces. I hope you have aces,” before making the call. Hellmuth checked on seventh street, Tonnellier bet again, and Hellmuth folded. After the hand, Tonnellier showed his set of kings. Hellmuth has 190,000 and Tonnellier has 120,000. Ramdin Gets Hang’d Tommy Hang: A6K3 Victor Ramdin: QK109 The action picks up on fourth street where Hang bets into Ramdin and garners a call. The action plays out the same on fifth street. Hang slows down on sixth street when Ramdin’s board shows four to a straight, and both players check. Both players check on seventh street as well, and Hang turns over an ace for a pair of aces. Ramdin can only muster a pair of queens, and the pot is Hang’s. After the pot, Hang was up to 60,000 and Ramdin was on life support with only 12,000. Omaha/8b Keith Sexton Doubles Up Keith Sexton got all in on the turn against Giovanni Rizzo. The board read AJ92 and the two turned over their cards: Rizzo: AKK4 Sexton: AQ32 The river was the 3 and Sexton avoided Rizzo’s slew of outs. Sexton doubled up to 60,000. Rizzo was knocked down to 20,000 and would be eliminated a short time later.

Tonnellier called but acknowledged that he was behind Hellmuth. Tonnellier then check-called the A on the turn and the 9 on the river. Hellmuth showed AK and "OmahaEd" mucked his AJ face up. Hellmuth Doesn’t Mess Around Phillip Penn Sr. raised pre-flop and Phil Hellmuth re-raised. Penn made the call and they saw a flop of J72. Penn check-called Hellmuth’s bet on the flop, and then did the same on the turn and river, both of which were deuces. Hellmuth showed down QQ and Penn mucked. Hellmuth’s patience has paid off. After a slow start he has collected a series of big pots, giving him nearly 150,000 on the day. Omaha/8b That’s Why They Call Him “OmahaEd” “Omaha” Ed Tonnellier raised on the button and Phillip Penn Sr. called from the big blind. Both players checked the J104 flop. Penn bet the turn when the dealer displayed the A. The river was the 2. Penn checked, Tonnellier bet, and Penn called. Tonnellier showed 7543 for a runner-runner wheel to scoop the pot. “OmahaEd” is now up to 80,000. After losing a series of giant pots, Phillip Penn Sr. has gone from chip leader to short stack. He only has 12,000 in chips now, and will need to mount a serious comeback to have any shot at winning.

Hang called and the two of them saw a flop. The flop came down QJ3. Brown bet, Hang raised, and Brown called. The turn was the Q and Brown checked to Hang. Hang bet and was quickly raised by Brown. Hang called, and then again called on the 9 river. Brown triumphantly showed AA and Hang mucked his hand. Omaha/8b Ramdin Raises River, Reaps Rewards Victor Ramdin raised pre-flop and was called by James Schaaf in late position. Both players checked the 1095 flop. Ramdin then check-called a bet on the K turn. On the river (9), Ramdin checked for the third time, eliciting a bet from Schaaf. On this street, however, Ramdin raised. Schaaf glowered, knowing that he was beat, and slid his cards into the muck. The hand brings Ramdin up to 33,000. Mike Matusow Eliminated On a flop of JJ7, Mike Matusow moved his final 6,000 chips in from the big blind. David Gee and Steven Diano both called. The turn was the 9 and Gee bet, Diano raised, Gee 3-bet, and Diano called. While this was going on, Mike Matusow was announcing to Phil Hellmuth at an adjacent table that he was about to be knocked out. On the river (6) Gee bet and Diano called. Diano asked, “Do you have J-9?” Gee turned over two of his cards: a jack and a nine. Diano angrily threw his J-7 toward the middle of the table. Mike Matusow, meanwhile, was busy showing everyone within view his AA82, saying that if he was going out, that at least he was going out getting most of his chips in pre-flop with that hand. With Matusow’s exit, the room will be a little more subdued, but much less interesting.

Two players made it to showdown and they showed KKQ3 and A1052; the former had a pair of kings for high and the latter had the nut low. Katchalov, who had stood up and shook his neighbor’s hand before the river had even been dealt, was, predictably, eliminated. Phil Hellmuth Eliminates Jan Sjavik Jan Sjavik was all-in preflop for about 6,000 against Phil Hellmuth. The two turned over their cards before the flop: Sjavik: AQ52 Hellmuth: AKJ2 The flop was A106, the turn was the 10, at which point Hellmuth notified the table (and, judging by the volume of his voice, several nearby tables) that he had already clinched the high. The river was the 2, which did not deliver Sjavik a low, and he was eliminated. Hellmuth is now up to 60,000. Razz Michael Binger, Meet Razz Binger: 44A Opponent: 34J The player in the 6 seat completed showing the 3 and Michael Binger called in the 1 seat with the 4. The 6 seat, drawing a 4 on fourth street, bet into the Binger, who had paired his four. Binger called. His opponent then bet fifth street. Binger angrily fired his up cards face-down onto the table and conceded the hand. Binger is now down to 20,000.

Jun 05, '07	2007 38th Annual World Series of Poker	Event 5 - Omaha/Seven Card Stud High/Low 8/OB	3	+
Tom Schneider Wins Omaha/Seven Card Stud High/Low 8/OB ($214,347) Jun 05, '07 The third time was a charm for Tom Schneider. Having previously making two other WSOP final table without a victory he entered the final table of the Omaha/Seven Card Stud High/Low 8/OB as the chip leader. As he had hoped he left with a coveted bracelet. He needed little more then an hour to dust off second place finisher Ed Tonnellier. Tonnellier made an impressive run of his own, starting the day last in chips with just $69,000. He was all in against Anne Duke three handed, doubled up and carried the momentum to one more spot higher on the pay scale. His second finish was good for $118,456. Schneider and Tonnellier played two key hands to determine the outcome. Heads up play started with 15 minutes left in $20,000 $40,000 limit Omaha and Schnieider wasted no time, taking a big pot off of Tonnellier on the first hand. Schneider limped on the button and Tonnellier checked. The flop came 993, Schneider bet and Tonnellier raised. Schneider called and the turn was the 3. Schneider checked, Tonnellier bet and Schneider check raised. Tonnellier made the call and the river was the 6. Schneider bet again and Tonnellier made the the call. Schneider tabled A937 and Tonnellier mucked. Schneider took down the next hand, and by the time play had got to $10,000-$30,000 with a $7,000 ante stud, Schneider has a commanding chip lead. He wore Tonnellier down to just three $1,000 chips and it was clear Schneider had the win in the bag. Tonnellier didn't give up and he ended up running his stack back up over $20,000 before Schneider was able to finish the job. With both players all in when Schneider completed, he was dealt AQ4 and Tonnellier KK2. 4th street brought Schneider the A and Tonnellier the 9. With the rail calling for an ace, six street complied and gave Schneider the A and he took the lead in the hand. It also brought Tonnellier the 3 and he picked up two pair and a flush draw. Tonnellier's seventh street didn't matter however, when Schneider filled up with the 4 to win his first WSOP bracelet. Player Tags: Ed Tonnellier, Tom Schneider View All Live Updates From This Event
