Big Pot For Amaral

Chris Amaral
Chris Amaral
Omaha-8

Chris Amaral was very keen to get the following hand into the blog after he took a pot away from James Van Alstyne in a recent Omaha-8 hand.

After Van Alstyne fired on the flop, Amaral put in a check-raise on a board of {K-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{2-Hearts}{9-Hearts}. Van Alstyne sighed and said "I wish I had it but I don't" and flashed the {K-Hearts} before mucking.

Amaral flipped {A-Hearts}{A-Spades}{K-Spades}{Q-Clubs} to take it down.

"That's a big pot for me," exclaimed the energetic Amaral, "That's the difference between 140 and 340!"
