Pot-Limit Omaha

James Obst limped the small blind and Josh Arieh raised the pot to 90,000 out of the big blind for his opponent to call.

On the J♠5♥4♣ flop, Obst bet the pot and that sent Arieh into a world of pain as he groaned and leaned to the side.

Arieh even studied his cards very high, almost pointing them to Daniel Alaei while murmuring that he had all the back doors. Talal Shakerchi warned him not to expose his cards any further and Arieh then tank-folded.

James Obst raised to 80,000 and Josh Arieh made it 285,000 from the button with only about 40,000 behind. The buttons got out of the way and Obst called.

Josh Arieh: J♥J♠7♥6♥
James Obst: K♠Q♥6♣3♥

Arieh was ahead with a pair of jacks and the board finished up 8♣4♣ to secure a double for the five-time WSOP champion.

Omaha Hi-Lo

Brian Rast opened on the button and Ray Dehkharghani defended out of the big blind. Dehkharghani checked on the flop of 8♥Q♣A♥ and Rast continued with a bet. Dehkharghani check-raised with just one big bet behind and Rast called.

Dehkharghani moved all in on the K♣ turn and Rast called to put Jennifer Harman's pick for the Poker Hall of Fame at risk.

Ray Dehkharghani: Q♠10♣5♦2♠
Brian Rast: Q♦5♣4♣3♥

Dehkharghani had the better kicker and the 8♦ river didn't change anything for Dehkharghani to double up.

Limit Hold'em

Josh Arieh raised on the button and Daniel Alaei three-bet out of the small blind for Arieh to call. Alaei bet the K♠5♥3♥ flop and J♣ turn, earning a call from Arieh both times. He also bet the K♥ river and then called a raise, but mucked upon being shown the A♥Q♥ for the ace-high flush by Arieh.

In the last hand before the break, Talal Shakerchi raised and James Obst defended his big blind. Obst check-called the A♠Q♠5♣ flop and the 7♠ turn. They checked the 7♣ river and Obst won the pot with the Q♣4♠ for queens and sevens,
