Suzuki Gets Lucky Chop
Level 27
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 0 ante
Omaha Hi-Lo
Action folded to Ryutaro Suzuki in the small blind and he raised. Tamon Nakamura called and they saw a flop of 3♣J♣Q♥.
Suzuki led out with a bet, Nakamura raised, Suzuki reraised, and Nakamura called all in.
Tamon Nakamura: Q♠J♥7♦4♣
Ryutaro Suzuki: A♦9♠8♥4♠
Nakamura had flopped top two pair, while Suzuki had a straight draw. The 8♠ fell on the turn, followed by the 6♣ on the river as Suzuki made a low to chop the pot and deny Nakamura a full double.
After the hand, Suzuki began playfully speaking to Nakamura and his supporters on the rail in Japanese. "Be quiet. There's too much noise. I don't understand what he's saying," Nakamura said as the players at the table shared a laugh.
