Schwartz Takes Control

Omaha Hi/Lo:

On the second of the heads-up hands, a big pot broke out. We were still tidying up the Chidwick bust-out, but we were listening into the action through fourth street. There was betting and check-raising and reraising, and each player had more well over a million chips in the pot when we scurried down to catch the river action.

The board read {9-Hearts} {7-Clubs} {2-Diamonds} {K-Diamonds} {7-Diamonds}, and Schwartz made the last bet. By now, Chiu was pretty certain the jig was up, and he made a reluctant call.

"Deuces full?" he asked as he did.

"You're right," Schwartz complimented. He showed down {10-Spades} {6-Clubs} {2-Clubs} {2-Hearts}, and his deuces full were the scooper. Chiu flashed his {A-Hearts} {A-Clubs} {J-Diamonds} {3-Diamonds} as he mucked.

That was the pot Schwartz needed to gain an edge, and he's really got Chiu on the ropes now.
