Siegel Quartered in Massive PLO 8 Confrontation
Pot-Limit Omaha 8 or Better
Ryan Goindoo opened to 30,000 on the button and Jordan Siegel three-bet to 100,000 in the big blind. Goindoo responded by four-betting to 290,000 to send Siegel into the tank as Chad Eveslage and others made note of the massive hand forming.
"This is an action game!" commented Dustin Dirksen. "Let's play this the rest of the way."
Siegel called and then led all in for 438,000 on the flop of 5?K?8?. Goindoo got a count and confirmed the pot before calling with a bigger stack.
Jordan Siegel: A?A?J?10?
Ryan Goindoo: A?A?J?7?
Both players had aces and Siegel had a flush draw to go with it before the board finished out 6?3? to give Goindoo a low to quarter Siegel as the two chopped the high.
The two discussed the hand as the dealer pushed Siegel his remaining chips and shipped the rest to Goindoo.
"There's 600,000 in the middle. How can I fold? I don't think either of us could fold there," Goindoo said.
"If there's a hand you could fold, you had it," Siegel replied.
"You think so?"
