![Jan_Kores](https://pnimg.net/w/avatar/2/58e/dd2774dea2.jpg)
Omaha Hi-Lo
Tom Koral entered the hand with a raise from the cutoff. David Steicke came along on the button, and so did Phil Hui from the big blind.
The flop was checked to Steicke, who bet. Hui, however, reacted with a check-raise, forcing Koral out of the way. Steicke decided to continue and called.
Hui led with a bet on the turn, and Steicke wasn't ready to fold yet. However, Hui's final bet on the
