Aces for E-Dog

Level 1

Omaha-8

Bertrand "ElkY" Grospellier raised in the cutoff, Erick Lindgren called in the big blind, and the flop fell {q-Hearts}{2-Diamonds}{9-Spades}. Lindgren led out, and Grospellier called.

The turn was the {3-Spades}, and Lindgren led again. Grospellier called, and the river was the {9-Hearts}. Grospellier called one more bet from Lindgren, and E-Dog tabled {a-Spades}{a-Clubs}{10-Spades}{7-Clubs} for a pair of aces. They were good, and he won the pot.
