I was browsing around Paradise today and noticed that they had a $400 max PL Omaha Hi/Lo game going. I bought in for $400 and started playing the game at 2:48. 25 minutes later I was up $170 when the following hand took place.
-----------------------------------------------------
Table "Ambrym" (real money) -- Seat 1 is the button
Seat 1: shoe44 ($226.00 in chips)
Seat 2: Dr. Q ($91.00 in chips)
Seat 3: Leon3 ($404.00 in chips)
Seat 4: SodbusterG ($144.00 in chips)
Seat 5: Rzitup ($570.00 in chips)
Seat 6: Opel1 ($436.00 in chips)
Seat 7: jinny ($0.00 in chips)
Seat 8: quads ($497.00 in chips)
Seat 9: Flush G ($200.00 in chips)

SodbusterG: Fold
Rzitup : Call ($72)
*** TURN *** : [ 8c Ts 5h ] [ Jc ]
Rzitup : Check
Opel1 : Check
*** RIVER *** : [ 8c Ts 5h Jc ] [ Ac ]
Rzitup : Bet ($216)
Opel1 : Call ($216)
-----------------------------------------------------
I shouldn’t have called the flop bet and would not have called a pot bet on the turn. My bet on the river was perfect. I put him on A2, which meant he would have had to call $216 with maybe a bad low and a pair of Aces, or he possibly had Aces up. I did not put him on a hand that would scoop me because of his check on the turn.
But then something strange happened. When the cards were turned up, the whole pot went to him!
*** SUMMARY ***
Pot: $645 | Rake: $3
