Perry Fried

Omaha 8

Perry Friedman was all in preflop in a four way pot with Scotty Nguyen, Kevin Iacofano and Michael Mizrachi. On a {K-Spades} {10-Spades} {7-Hearts} flop it was checked to the button Mizrachi who bet, Nguyen check-raised and Iacofano folded. Mizrachi folded and Nguyen bet out on the {Q-Hearts} turn declaring, "Raise it up baby."

Mizrachi sighed, "My spades are no good," mucking a nine-high flush draw.

"Of course, they're no good baby!" said Nguyen as he turned over {A-Spades} {6-Spades} {5-Diamonds} {2-Diamonds} for the nut flush draw. Friedman, who was all in blind flipped {Q-Spades} {3-Spades} {J-Diamonds} {8-Clubs} - a decent, and more importantly, ahead hand.

"I just want an ace baby!" said Nguyen and even when it was pointed out he couldn't win with an ace, he didn't care saying, "just give me an ace baby."

The river was the {J-Spades} and Nguyen made the nut flush despite the number of spades already out of action.
