We came across an all-in showdown on the flop that represented a pretty a common occurrence in the game of PLO: monster made hand vs monster draw.
All the chips were in on a flop, and players tabled their hands:
Joel Sheres:
Gino Frenette:
We were looking at a strong set of nines trying to fade 7 straight outs – Sheres had a blocker – but the turn came with a lot of spice:
A monster draw was created… but the on the river might as well have been a piece of scrap paper. Sheres picked up the pot.
