Omaha Hi-Lo
Mike Gorodinsky dreaded returning for Day 3 as the short stack and begged his opponents to eliminate him. "Please Josh, deliver me from this tournament," he said as he raised into Josh Arieh's big blind. "Please for the love of God don't fold."
"You get very religious when you're tired," said Eric Wasserson.
Arieh called and they saw a flop of 2♥8♣7♠. Gorodinsky bet and Arieh raised to put him all in. No way was Gorodinsky folding.
Mike Gorodinsky: A♣Q♥8♠5♦
Josh Arieh: K♣9♣6♠3♥
The board finished out Q♠A♠ and the two chopped the pot with Arieh taking the low and Gorodinsky getting the high, hardly the desired result.
"That was the worst possible outcome," Gorodinsky said.
