Big-O

The action folded around to Shirley Rosario on the button who raised it up to 400. Dion Kaba was in the small blind and three-bet to 1,350. The big blind folded and the action was on Rosario who made a four-bet to 4,200. Kaba just called and they went heads up to a flop with already a bunch of chips in the middle.

The flop came {q-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} and Kaba announced a pot-sized bet which was enough for him to be all in for 7,750.

"That's not the best flop," Rosario said as she still made the call. Kaba tabled {a-Clubs}{a-Diamonds}{q-Clubs}{j-Spades}{9-Clubs} for a straight while Rosario held {a-Spades}{a-Hearts}{3-Clubs}{2-Clubs}{x-} and would need to hit two low cards to get half of the pot.

The turn was the {4-Spades}, giving Rosario some outs to chop the pot, but the {q-Diamonds} on the river secured the win for Kaba. When the stacks were counted, Kaba earned a full double-up and Rosario was left with just 250 chips.
