Hahn Rivers Two Chops

[user75032]

Omaha-8

Twice, Albert Hahn ran into a flopped set. Twice, he rivered a low to chop the pot. First he raised pre-flop and was called by Jeff Lisandro in the small blind. Lisandro bet the {7-Clubs} {k-Clubs} {2-Clubs} flop and the {9-Spades} turn. When Hahn called each time and the river came {5-Spades} , Lisandro slowed down. He checked, then called one bet with {k-Spades} {k-Diamonds} {5-Hearts} {2-Diamonds} , a set of kings. Hahn showed {a-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} {4-Spades} for the nut low and a pair of sevens. Chop it up.

The next hand, Hahn again raised from middle position. He was called by Phil Ivey out of the big blind. Ivey got in a check-raise on a flop of {8-Diamonds} {k-Clubs} {3-Spades} , then bet the {10-Clubs} turn and the {6-Diamonds} river. Hahn called every time, tabling {a-Spades} {a-Diamonds} {4-Clubs} for a pair of aces and the second nut-low. Ivey turned over {3-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {a-Hearts} {6-Hearts} for a set of treys. Again, chop it up.
