Bad to Worse

Omaha Hi/Lo:

James Van Alstyne had a terrible round of hold'em, and now he's been quartered in Omaha Hi/Lo. Luckily for van Alstyne, it was limped three-way pot that was checked through on the flop and turn. At the river, with the board showing {10-Diamonds} {6-Hearts} {2-Clubs} {4-Spades} {5-Clubs}, Van Alstyne led with a bet that was called by Tad Jurgens. The hands were:

Jurgens: {A-Spades} {2-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} {8-Clubs}
Van Alstyne: {A-Hearts} {6-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} {J-Clubs}

Each player had a live ace for low, but Jurgens got the high half of the pot with his pair of eights.
