Bomb Pot Chaos; Zack Brings Order

Level 7 : Blinds 400/800, 800 ante

PLO Bomb Pot:

7J9
434

A player in middle position bet 2,700 and Simon Lefebvre went all in for 7,600. Brian Barker called, as did the player on his left. Action furthered even more when Dan Zack went all in for 24,200. The initial raiser and Barker made the call.

Simon Lefebvre: 9975 All in
Middle Position: K1077 All in
Dan Zack: AQ84 All in
Brian Barker: JJ93

With no further action possible, both boards ran out as follows:

7J9 5A
434 K6

A flustered dealer had three pots and four hands open in front of her and was at a loss at where to begin chopping the pots. An uproarious table shouted hand ranks and numbers at her until Zack offered to help; stacking his chips for her and telling who to break the big chips in the middle, breaking down the hand ranks pot by pot.

Only the initial preflop raiser was eliminated this hand and he wandered off before his chips found their rightful owner.
