August Doubles Up After Freerolling
Level 30
: Limits 100,000/200,000, 200,000 ante
Omaha Hi-Lo 8 or Better
Ryan Miller raised from the button, and Leonard August called in the big blind.
The flop rolled out Q♦4♦Q♣, and both players checked to the 10♠ turn that saw Leonard check to Miller, who bet and August raised. Miller sighed as he raised August all in, and August called.
Leonard August: A♥J♣10♥3♣
Ryan Miller: A♠10♦9♠6♣
Both players had the same hand, but August held the freeroll with a straight draw.
"How about a king?" asked August.
The river obliged as the K♥ rolled off, giving August the straight, and Miller slammed the table in frustration as he walked over to his rail while August took down the pot.
