Pot-Limit Omaha

Daniel Cates bet 9,000 on the river reading {6-Clubs}{6-Spades}{2-Spades}{A-Hearts}{4-Diamonds}, and Mike Leah paused for a moment before calling.

"I have three... three sixes," Cates announced, slowly rolling over his {6-Hearts}.

Leah showed his {6-Hearts} in return, waiting for Cates' other cards.

Cates had the {Q-Diamonds} as his best kicker, and Leah had that beat with his {K-Diamonds}. Leah opened the remaining two cards to show his {Q-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{9-Clubs}. Cates mucked.
