"That's How They Beat Me"

Level 2

Omaha

The button and small blind limped, and Sam Grizzle bumped it up from the big blind. Both opponents called.

The small blind checked the {3-Spades}{6-Spades}{q-Clubs} flop, and Grizzle kept the lead. Both players again came along. The turn was the {10-Spades}, and Grizzle again fired when checked to. This time, both players folded.

Grizzle showed {3-}{5-}{6-} for a flopped two pair. He also tossed the three across the table, revealing a a sharp indent in the card.

"That's how they beat me," he said with a wink.

Baker Chipping Up

Level 2
David "ODB" Baker
David "ODB" Baker

Omaha

David "ODB" Baker raised from an early position and was called by a player in middle position and the small blind.

The flop came {j-Clubs}{j-Hearts}{10-Spades}. The small blind checked, Baker bet and only the middle position player called. Both players then checked through the {3-Spades} and {k-Spades}. Baker rolled over {a-}{10-}{8-}{5-} for jacks and tens, and his opponent mucked.

Baker, who took down the eight game event last year, is certainly a player we'll be keeping an eye on as the tournament progresses.
