Niveau 23 : 10,000/20,000, 0 ante

Action on a ten-handed final table is usually slow when it comes to pot-limit Omaha, and this table hasn't been any different.

Nonetheless, Jason Riesenberg knew he was soon going to make his move, and he picked his spot when Ray Henson opened from the second position.

Riesenberg had a four-to-a-wheel hand, holding . Unfortunately for him, Henson had an even stronger weapon, showing for bullets with two additional low cards.

The board ran out , leaving Henson's aces as the high-hand winner. Both players used their ace-deuce for the best possible low, and Riesenberg had to give up half of his chips, being quartered.

Riesenberg is playing a micro stack, and he'll soon be inevitably all in again.

The turn sealed the high for Hale and the river missed Saul's low outs.

Saul was down to his last 168,000 and he lost his remaining chips in the following minutes. Michael Gross drew a close to Saul's performance with . Saul's cards and the board were already mucked by the time we arrived.
