Pot-Limit Omaha
Ferenc Deak had been staying alive with a shove here and there during the No-Limit Hold'em round, keeping his stack floating around 1,000,000. Just as the PLO round started, Deak was in late position and he potted it to 475,000 with a limp from Richard Green in front of him.
Richard Green spent some time looking at the dead money in the middle eventually saying, "I have a feeling about this one..." and he decided to raise, putting Deak at risk.
Ferenc Deak: Q♥Q♣4♠A♥
Richard Green: 3♦4♦5♥7♣
At first it appeared Green's intuition led him well on a board reading 7♠J♣5♠K♠ but the 10♦ triggered the applause of Deak's rail, as he made a straight and excitedly yelled, "Justice!!!".
The very next hand, a short stacked Green got it in against Deak.
Richard Green: A♥Q♥Q♠K♣
Ferenc Deak: A♥8♥9♦2♠
The board ran out A♣10♥3♣9♠6♥, giving Deak two-pair and a stack to work with. Green was forced to settle for $32,809 and an 11th place finish.
