It turns out this was Myles Budd’s first tournament that featured PLO and he did pretty well in it. Most of the damage happened when he got it in dominated against Benny Sarnelli, but he managed to double back again.
It all came to an end in a limped family pot when the flop came 4♣K♠5♠. Sarnelli checked, Budd potted to force Daniel Hicks out of the hand, but Sarnelli was laying the trap and shoved over Budd, who had almost nothing left behind.
Budd called but it was a brutal spot where both players flopped two pair, but the king-five for Sarnelli was slightly better than the king-four for Budd and the runout didn’t change anything.
