Bob T. Wins Event #14: 5 Card Pot-Limit Omaha (CAD $2,352)
Bob T. took down Event #14 in only his third-ever Pot-Limit Omaha tournament. He bested a field of 64 players to win the CAD $2,352 first prize and the World Cup of Cards Trophy.
The players made a deal to pay the bubble, which meant that Manfred Gunther would get CAD $120 when he eventually finished eighth. Then, they changed the deal again five handed, adding about $400 to fifth and taking roughly that amount from first. Then the remaining four players completed two full levels before Alain Neveu and Andy D��Alessandro would be eliminated.
D��Alessandro actually eliminated Neveu just before he himself was eliminated. Neveu and D��Alessandro got all in preflop and D��Alessandro took down the pot with a slightly better two pair.
Then D��Alessandro got all in with Nicolas Valette-Heiler preflop. Valette had aces and hit a set on the river beating D��Alessandro��s flush draw.
Bob T. and Valette-Heiler had fairly even stacks entering heads up play. The stack swung to Valette-Heiler at first, but the final nine hands of the tournament went to Bob T. He got two walks, but on the other seven hands Bob T. either opened with a pot bet or bet the pot over a Valette-Heiler limp. On the final hand, Valette-Heiler bet the pot blind from the small blind. Bob T. called when he saw his hand and Valette-Heiler was at risk.
Bob T. would make a straight on the turn to win the tournament and send Valette-Heiler home with second place.
This was a six-handed event, so the final table started play seven handed. Shortly after the final table started, Antoine Chuzeville got all in against Joey Boczek and couldn��t catch up. Boczek would then be eliminated in sixth place after getting all in against Bob T. on an all-heart flop with a straight and a set. Bob T. had flopped a queen-high flush and would stay ahead.
