Furth Calls Down to a Chop
Level 15
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Omaha Hi-Lo
Heads-up on a flop of 5♥2♥8♥, the small blind bet and Bruno Furth called on the button.
Both players checked the J♣ turn before the small blind led out again on the 4♣ river.
Furth tanked for a moment before he called as his opponent turned over A♦2♣ for the nut low. Furth had 9♦6♦5♠5♦ for a flopped set and chopped the pot to preserve his massive stack near the end of Day 1.
At other tables, Ryan Moriarty and James Woods have put themselves in contention for bagging up a top stack.
