Omaha 8/b
There were five, count 'em, five people in pre-flop for the maximum five bets each at Pat Pezzin's table. On a flop of 
, Eric Conti had first action. His bet was called by Pezzin and James Darnaby before Ken Lennaard raised. The fifth player called two cold, bringing the action back to Conti. He three-bet all in and was called by all four other players.
The turn fell 
. Betting was on the side. Pezzin and Darnaby checked to Lennaard. He bet and was raised by the fifth player, giving Pezzin a tough decision. As he thought it out, and thought it out, players at the table began talking to him.
"You should have just folded pre-flop," said one.
"You don't even know what I have," Pezzin replied.
A second player asked, "How long does he have?"
"If you want to call the clock," said Pezzin, "Be my guest. But maybe if you would shut up I'd be able to think and make a decision." The table did quiet down, and both Pezzin and Darnaby eventually foldd.
At the river Lennaard bet and the last remaining player called all in. She turned up 
for a straight and the second nut low. Darnaby showed 
for three jacks and the nut low.
As for the main pot, Conti opened 
, a hand clearly no good both ways. He busted, Pezzin moved to 70,000, and Lennaard increased to 100,000.
