Somehow, One Pair Scoops

Lyle Berman
Lyle Berman

Omaha 8/b:

It was a pretty tough break for Lyle Berman. He flopped two pair and a low draw with {a-Spades} {4-Spades} {7-Clubs} {6-Clubs} against Patrik Antonius' top pair and gutshot straight draw, {a-Diamonds} {k-Clubs} {j-Hearts} {j-Diamonds}, on a board of {10-Diamonds} {a-Clubs} {6-Hearts}. The turn {10-Spades} was a terrible card, overcoating Berman's hand, but after check-raising the flop he followed through with turn bet that Antonius called. Both players checked the {4-Diamonds} river, allowing Antonius to take down the entire pot with aces and tens with a king kicker.
