McKenna Eliminated by Distenfeld
Level 12
Omaha Hi-Lo
The remaining short stack of Michael McKenna was almost all in the middle prior to the 6♥6♣5♦ flop on which his bet of 3,000 was called by Gershon Distenfeld. McKenna then bet the last 1,000 in the dark prior to the 2♦ turn. Distenfeld was briefly confused before it was made clear he only needed to put in one more chip before the showdown proceeded.
Michael McKenna: A♦K♦5♣4♦
Gershon Distenfeld: 7♣6♦3♦2♣
"I have a full house," Distenfeld declared and McKenna demanded "three of diamonds one time" before he leaned over to see that one card for a scoop already being out of the equation. He still had the low but that also vanished with the A♣ river to end his run in the tournament.
