$175 + $25 + $20 Pot Limit Omaha (Re-Entry)
Blinds 800/1,600
Alex Quinones (Blacksburg, VA)
$436
Alex Quinones starts the hand with ~100k and sees a flop of K♣ 6♣ 2♣ with chip leader Bobby Sahgal. Quinones bets 5k and Sahgal calls.
Turn: 9♣
Quinones bets 15k, Sahgal pots to 89k and Quinones is all in when he makes the call.
“Show me the Ace,” says Quinones, which Sahgal promptly does by tabling A♣ 2♣ for the nut flush.
Quinones shows Q♣ J♣, the second nut flush and is drawing to a one-out, straight flush draw. But when the wrong T is on the river Quinones is on the rail as the first player to cash in the WPT Regional Winter Tampa Bay Open.
Quinones is out in 9th place for $436, while Sahgal is up over 300k and has more than 1/3 of the chips in play.
