"Did I Just Beat A Legend or Something?"
Omaha Hi-Lo
PokerNews picked up the action after a check-call by Fred Bell on a completed board of 2♦2♥A♥7♦J♥.
With the cards on their backs, Bell's opponent was showing the K♥J♣5♥2♣ for a full house, but much to the surprise of tablemate Ted Forrest, Bell had check-called the river with the nut full house holding the A♦A♠Q♠3♥ to win the whole pot as his opponent had no qualifying low.
As PokerNews walked away from the table, with a big smile on his face, Forrest, who was not in the hand, said, "Check-called aces full on fifth street." in an attempt to make sure that we got the very surprising fifth street action correct.
As we asked for Bell's name, he assumed he had beat a legend out of a pot, but the table agreed pretty quickly that even at a table with Ted Forrest, Bell was the legend.
