Vornicu Quarters Makarov

Level 17 : 6,000/12,000, 1,500 ante

Omaha Hi-Lo

After a raise and a call preflop, Valentin Vornicu faced off against Alexey Makarov, with Vornicu on the button and Makarov action from middle position.

The flop was {10-Clubs}{5-Hearts}{6-Hearts} and both players checked to see the {2-Clubs} on the turn.

Makarov checked to Vornicu and Vornicu bet. Makarov check-raised, and Vornicu called.

The river was the {7-Hearts} and Makarov bet. Vornicu called.

"Did you get there?" Vornicu asked. "You hit a flush?"

Makarov didn't respond, he just turned up {A-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{5-Spades}{7-Diamonds} for two pair and an ace three for the low.

Vornicu, however, showed {A-Spades}{3-Hearts}{4-Clubs}{J-Diamonds} for the same low and three four for a straight. That earned him three-quarters of the pot. As he was bringing in the chips, and the players were explaining how the pot should be split up, the dealer pushed the pot over to Vornicu. Yong Wang, who was to Vornicu's left, reached for the pot.

"This belongs to me, right?" Wang said. Everyone laughed, and Vornicu quickly stacked the chips.
