Marc Karam Eliminated

Omaha 8/b:

Four down... 112 to go.

John D'Agostino opened for a raise from the cutoff, Marc Karam three-bet all-in from the small blind, David Steicke called from the small blind and D'Agostino called. Steicke and D'Agostino continued betting on the side-- Steicke check-calling a bet from D'Agostino on the {K-Clubs}{10-Hearts}{5-Hearts} flop. The turn was the {8-Diamonds} and Steicke check-raised D'Agostino, only to be met with a reraise. Steicke called and both players checked the {7-Spades} on the river.

D'Agostino made the nut low with {A-Clubs}{2-Hearts}{J-Hearts}{Q-Hearts}, Steicke won the high with {Q-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{6-Spades} for two pair and Karam hit the rail, his {A-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}{J-Clubs} no good. D'Ags is up to 200,000 and Steicke has 190,000.
