Ruggieri and Stein Chop
Level 2
: Blinds 500/1,000, 100 ante
Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better
Z Stein raised preflop under the gun. John Ruggieri called from the cutoff, with Allen Kessler defending his big blind.
The flop came 8?4?A?. Stein bet, with both of his opponents calling. The 4? turn saw another bet from Stein. Ruggieri called, with Kessler taking a few moments before folding.
The 7? river saw one final bet from Stein, and Ruggieri called. Stein showed K?5?4?3? for three fours with a seven-five low. Ruggieri took half of the pot away by turning over A?K?5?4? for fours full of aces.
"What a good fold by me," quipped Kessler.
