1,500 Pot Limit Omaha - Level 13

Jun 11, '08

Blinds: 1500/3000

Players Left: 31 of 579

Chip Leaders:

Vanessa Selbst - 290,000
Jesper Hougaard - 165,000
Greg Cox - 140,000
Anthony Pilling - 110,000
Jamie Pickering - 100,000
Craig Natte - 91,000
Eugene Todd - 90,000
Jordan Morgan - 90,000
Ryan Lenaghan - 88,000
Mel Randolph - 88,000

Eliminations: Martin Smyth, Tony Cousineau, Mark Deserrano, Eric Rosenman, Ward Crane, Jason McIntosh, George Watson.

Big Hands:

Quads are Good

Six players saw the flop to create a 30,000 pot. The flop came A43. Calen McNeil led out with a 15,000 bet and Thom Schultz raised it to 41,000. It left him with just 7000 in chips. McNeil debated his decision for awhile, long enough to proclaim "call" rather than raise the final 7000. Both players then put the remaining chips in blind. Schultz held 7544 for middle set while McNeil had the KJJ3 for a flush draw. The 4 on the turn ended the drama and preserved Schultz's tournament life, giving him quads. The K finished the board.

Stanley Smiles

Stanley Statkiewicz managed a major double up when he spiked the river against Ryan Lenaghan. Lenaghan hit the flop of JJ2, holding trips with the QJ96. Statkiewicz held the KK5-4, and trailed after the A hit the turn. But the K on the river gave Statkiewicz a set to take the pot down and chip up to 72,000.

Todd Dodges Trouble

Carter Gill raised to 6500 preflop and got the call from Eugene Todd. The flop came J33. Both players checked and the 10 hit the turn. Todd checked, Gill bet 8000 and Todd folded, Gill showed him the J3 for the flopped full house.

Cowsar Runs for Two Pair

Lawrence Cowsar was all-in for 10,000 which Vanessa Selbst called. Craig Natte in the small blind then reraised, and Selbst folded, Cowsar held the A1085, while Natte had KKQJ. The flop came Q92 to give Cowsar the flush draw, but it was the running two pair of the 5 on the turn and 8 on the river that created the winning hand.

Gill Takes Another Hit

Carter Gill called 43,000 after a flop of J98. He showed the J107-5, but his opponent had flopped a straight while holding AKQ10. Gill tumbled to 33,000 in chips.
