Violette Can't Believe Her Luck

Level 13
Cyndy Violette
Cyndy Violette

Omaha Hi-Lo

We picked up the action with Cyndy Violette already all in with about 30,000 in the pot on a flop of {4-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{10-Hearts}. After the dealer burned and turned the {A-Clubs}, Jim McCrink bet from the under-the-gun position and then called when Dan Kelly raised him. McCrink then check-called a bet on the {Q-Diamonds} river and Violette stood and grabbed her things in anticipation of her exit.

Kelly then tabled the {a-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}{3-Hearts} for aces and tens with the nut low, while McCrink rolled over the {2-Spades}{3-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{k-Clubs} for the same low. That meant Kelly got three-quarters of the side pot. Violette then sat back down in her chair and showed the {4-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{2-Clubs} for a set of fours, which was good for half the high while her two male opponents chopped the low.

"Wow. I thought I was dead for sure," Violette said in regards to the third diamond on the river.

Meanwhile, both Andy Bloch and Justin "Boosted J" Smith have been eliminated from the tournament.
