Ulett Scoops, Triples Up
Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better
Dennis Monty: XxXx/8♣Q♣10♥9♠/Xx
Todd Rohulich: XxXx/6♠3♥10♠7♦/Xx
Travis Ulett: XxXx/4♥9♥2♦9♣/Xx
Monty completed before Rohulich put in a third bet. Ulett, nursing a short stack, put in a fourth bet. Monty and Rohulich came along.
Fourth street saw Monty check. Rohulich bet, with both of his opponents making the call.
Fifth street saw action checked to Ulett, whose bet was called by both Monty and Rohulich.
Ulett paired up on sixth street, and moved all in for just under a big bet. Monty and Rohulich both called before checking down seventh street.
Rohulich and Monty began to look at each other, waiting to reveal their hands. "Pair of threes," said Rohulich. Ulett turned over A♥6♦3♠ for a pair of nines with a six perfect, which was good for a scoop.
