Hansen vs. Haxton

Level 9 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante
Gus Hansen
Gus Hansen

Omaha Hi-Lo

"For f*ck's sake, Gus," said Isaac Haxton, facing a bet from Gus Hansen on a {3-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{9-Hearts}{4-Hearts} board.

"Is that a penalty?" Hansen asked. "Is his hand dead?"

"If my hand were killed it would make things a lot easier," said Haxton before calling.

"I think I'm getting half," said Hansen, showing {j-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{5-Diamonds} for a six-five low and a pair of fives.

"And you will get that half," replied Haxton showing {a-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} for a set of aces and no low. "We were not in very good shape on the flop."

"I don't know about you," said Hansen, "but I had a flush draw and a low draw. You had no low draw. Believe me, I've been in worse shape before."

"Oh, I believe you!" said Haxton.
