Stud Hi-Lo

Martin Kabrhel: XxXx / 6♥3♣9♣K♠ / Xx
Jesse Lonis: XxXx / 5♠3♦10♣Q♦ - folded on sixth street
Yuri Dzivielevski: XxXx / 4♦5♥2♦7♣ / Xx

Action picked up on fifth as it checked to Dzivielevski, who bet, and both opponents called.

Dzivielevski bet again on sixth and only Kabrhel called. He bet for a final time on seventh, sending Kabrhel deep into the tank. He asked the dealer to pull in the previous bets and separate them into piles before he eventually decided to flick in the call with few chips behind.

Dzivielevski revealed A♠K♦Q♠ for a low with ace-king high as Kabrhel tabled 8♣7♥6♣ in the hole for a lone pair of sixes which was good for half.

Kabrhel was curious about his river call as he asked Brian Rast on his left, "I have to call there on the river, yeah? It's like automatic?" to which Rast nodded his head in approval.

"Thank you dealer," Kabrhel continued, "My first ever split-pot."

PJ Cha: 10♥10♦ All in
Paul Volpe: A♦A♣

The 4♦2♦A♥ flop left Cha with only running outs, and the 4♣ turn locked up the pot for Volpe. The 5♥ was rendered meaningless as Cha busted his second and final bullet.
