Pearson Scoops Three-Ways, Sends Chio Packing
Level 18
: Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante
Omaha Hi-Lo
Daniel Chio raised from the cutoff and Kristopher Townsend called from the small blind only to see Travis Pearson three-bet from the big blind.
Chio tossed in a four-bet and got called by both Townsend and Pearson to set up a three-way flop of 9♦8♣9♣. Townsend checked to Pearson who bet. Chio went all in and was called by both Townsend and Pearson to head to a 7♣ turn card with Chio at risk.
Townsend check-called a bet from Pearson, prompting the dealer to put the 7♥ out on the river.
Action checked through and Pearson turned over the A♦10♣4♦2♣ for the flush. Townsend tabled the A♣K♥9♥3♥, good for three nines but not good enough to get scooped by Pearson as Chio tossed his cards into the muck and exited the tournament area.
