Engel Gets Quartered on the Main, Half the Side
Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better
Jonah Seewald limped in from middle position and Ari Engel called from the button before Christopher Chung and Sean Troha came along from the blinds.
The flop was K♦2♦3♥ and action checked to Engel for a bet from the button. Chung and Troha called and Seewald got out of the way.
The turn was 7♣ and action checked again to Engel for another bet. Chung called and Troha called to be committed for less than a full bet.
A side pot started on the 10♠ river when Chung check-called a bet from Engel and the cards were turned up.
Chung had K♥Q♣J♠9♦ for a pair of kings to take half of everything. Troha had A♥Q♦8♥5♦ for the ace-five low. Engel, however, turned over A♦7♠5♣5♥ to take half the side and one-quarter of the main pot with the same ace-five low. Troha suvived with only a quarter of the main pot.
Bronshtein is at the same table and he's trending up in the first level of the day, while Patrick Leonard and Troha have fallen behind. Meanwhile, Alex Livingston and Benjamin Miner have been eliminated from the tournament on other tables.
