Default High stakes Limit o8 hand from Negreanu\'s Blog (LC?)

As a fan of the game, I found this description of a live 300/600 hand interesting.

From his blog:

In a six-way Omaha H/L hand I was dealt Ah 10h Ks Qs. I raised coming in, it got re-raised, and finally capped for five bets.

The flop came: Js 8h 9s. Wow, what a flop for me. I flopped the nuts, with a king high flush draw, a bigger straight draw, and a back door flush draw.

To my surprise, four of us got four bets in on the flop too!

The turn card came the 5h! Wow, now I also had the nut heart draw along with my king high flush draw, nuts straight, and higher straight redraw. Oh and no, I'm NOT making this up!

A couple more bets went in on the turn, 4 to be exact! The river came the 7d and I wasn't happy about that card. It seemed as though I might get quartered since a back door low got there, and that's exactly what happened. I was up against:

As 3s 8c 9c (two pair and the nut spade draw)
Ac Qc 9d 10d (nuts straight, no re-draw)

I got a quarter of this monster pot which was pretty disappointing. Sure my spade draw was no good, but man, what a hand!
