Leif Force Ebbing
It's a crazy game, this PLO8. The variance can be deadly. Leif Force was riding high as the chip leader just a few hands ago. Now he's all the way down to 95,000 after losing two pots. First, he doubled up Ali al Jenabi on a flop. Jenabi turned up for just a pair of kings against Force's "just a pair" of aces, . Jenabi promptly turned two pair with the and dragged the whole pot with the river.
That hand knocked Force down to 195,000. He lost another huge chunk to Jenabi a short time later when the two engaged in a pre-flop raising war that ended with Jenabi all in again. He turned up [3h to Force's . A jack on the flop and no low on board was pretty much the end for Force in the hand. He's down to 95,000 now.
