Benyamine Gets Half with a Royal Flush
Level 2
Omaha Hi-Lo
Picking up the action on the flop, David Benyamine in the big blind was involved in a hand with Allen Kessler in the cutoff and a player on the button.
With the board reading A♦J♠10♦, Benyamine checked and Kessler bet. The button player called, as did Benyamine to keep action three-handed heading to the turn.
All three players checked through the Q♦ turn to the 8♥ river at which point Benyamine led out. Kessler and the button player called with Benyamine subsequently turning over K♦J♦10♠8♦ for the turned royal flush. The button player took the low holding Q♥6♥5♣2♣ while Kessler, who had flopped a set of aces, was left on the outside looking in.
