Niveau 3

Pot-Limit Omaha

Johannes Becker limped on the button and Elior Sion called in the small blind before Ben Lamb checked his option out of the big blind.

Sion checked the 6♠7♠2♦ flop. Lamb led out for 6,000, getting a call from Becker but a fold from Sion to send action heads-up to the turn.

Neither player put any more money into the pot on the J♣ turn but Lamb bet 20,000 after the river came 10♣. Becker did not immediately fold, though in the end he reached the decision to do so as Lamb, known for his skill in the Omaha variant, took down another pot.

Niveau 3

Omaha Hi-Lo

Maxx Coleman opened on the button, receiving calls from both Talal Shakerchi in the small blind as well as Brian Rast in the big blind.

Coleman bet after action checked to him on the Q♥5♥6♣ flop. Shakerchi and Rast both came along to see a turn.

The turn came 9♣. Shakerchi checked for a second time but Rast took the opportunity to bet out. Coleman put in a raise, which was enough to convince Shakerchi to vacate the hand. Rast, however, made the call.

Rast called another bet from Coleman after the 8♠ river. Coleman tabled A♥8♦7♣2♦ for the straight and eight low to scoop Rast, leaving the defending champion short about midway through Day 1.
