Livingston Makes a Big Fold, Then Cracks Aces
Level 20
: Limits 30,000/60,000, 0 ante
Omaha Hi-Lo
Alex Livingston raised from the cutoff, Brian Yoon three-bet in the small blind, and Livingston called.
The flop came K?6?6? and Yoon continued with a bet. Livingston called, then called another bet on the K? turn.
The river came the 9? and Yoon bet again. Livingston tanked for about a minute before folding A?6?.
The next hand, Phil Hellmuth three-bet in the big blind and Livingston again called out of the hijack.
The flop came 4?8?A? and Livingston got his last chips in the middle. Hellmuth had A?A?J?7?, while Livingston had A?Q?5?3?.
The 7? turn and 6? river gave Livingston a straight and he doubled up.
"I feel better about the fold now that I doubled up," Livingston said.
