Rouhani Gasping for Air
The curtain is coming down on Farzad Rouhani's tournament. He has less than 40,000 after a few recent hands of Omaha Hi/Lo. The last one was contested three-ways with Ron Schiffman and Fabrice Soulier.
Soulier raised pre-flop, with Rouhani and Schiffman calling from the blinds. All players checked the flop. On the turn, Rouhani checked and Schiffman bet. Everyone called.
The on the river checked all the way through. Schiffman turned up for an eight-high straight and the second nut low. It drew a quiet fold from Soulier, and an angry pitching of Rouhani's cards into the muck.
