Loube Gets His Wish, Loses Anyway to Li
Level 7
Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better
In a blind versus blind battle, Steven Loube bet on the 8?Q?5? flop and Yingui Li called.
The turn was the 10? and Loube bet again. Li called. "Keep it high, dealer. Don't do it to me," Loube pleaded.
The river was the K? and both players checked. "Straight," Loube said, but Li showed J?10?8?3? for a flush.
"I know," Loube said as he mucked.
"I know you know," Li replied, taking in the pot.
"It was my fault. I should've specified exactly what high card I wanted," Loube added.
