Just Another PLO Pot

Level 1 : 25/50, 0 ante

How about a big three-way pot to start the day?

We missed the action that got the chips into the middle, but Mike Fosco, Sam Youssef, and Leo Boxell got it all in there on a {J-Diamonds} {10-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} flop.

Showdown
Fosco: {10-Clubs} {10-Spades} {9-Clubs} {7-Spades} (middle set, straight draw)
Boxell: {9-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} {4-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} (straight, flush draw)
Youssef: {J-Spades} {J-Clubs} {A-Clubs} {6-Hearts} (top set)

Boxell was well in front for the time being. Youssef needed the board to pair, but the {10-Hearts} turn was certainly not the repeater he was looking for. Just like that, the big underdog Fosco improved to quad tens to leave himself one out from a triple up.

The river was the blank {3-Clubs}, and Fosco's quads drag that big pot. He's about about 14,500 now, still hanging on to those two add-on cards as well.
