Buchalter Chops While Playing Great
Level 7
Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better
With the flop coming 10?10?7? and action checked to him, Max Pescatori bet under the gun. He received three callers - Kevin Gerhart from the button, Paul Volpe from the small blind, and Yehuda Buchalter from the big blind.
The turn came 2?, and action was again checked to Pescatori. He led out, with only Buchalter calling.
The 8? river saw Buchalter check-call a final bet. Pescatori turned over A?A?6?4? for two pair with an eight-seven.
"Can I just show two of my cards?" asked Buchalter, revealing Q?7? for a flush to take the high. He then turned over his other two cards, Q?Q?, to a couple of laughs from the table.
"You're playing great," quipped Jen Harman.
