Tune into Card Player every Monday and Friday evening for a recap of one of the most intriguing cash-game hands that recently took place in the online poker world. Also, be sure to check out extensive weekly recaps at around 3 p.m. EST on Wednesdays.
Cadillac1944 was at one point up more than $1 million this week, mostly thanks to taking Tom “durrrr” Dwan for nearly $750,000 Tuesday. However, on Wednesday, cadillac1944 gave most of the profits back.
Most of the losses occurred in a $500-$1,000 pot-limit Omaha session versus DrugsOrMe on Full Tilt Poker. The battle only lasted about 200 hands, but that was enough for cadillac1944 to drop about $600,000 to DrugsOrMe.
One of the biggest pots of the session occurred after both players flopped the nuts, but DrugsOrMe had a flush redraw.
Here is a look at the hand:
The Scenario:
Game/Blinds | Pot-Limit Omaha | $500-$1,000 |
Player | cadillac1944 | DrugsOrMe |
Stack Size | $104,997 | $490,468 |
Hand | Q 2 7 3 | K 3 Q 2 |
The Action:
The confrontation started when DrugsOrMe raised to $2,000 from the button. Cadillac1944 called from the big blind, and the flop came A 5 4.
Cadillac1944 led out with $4,000, and DrugsOrMe raised to $11,000. Cadillac1944 made it $37,000, and DrugsOrMe elected to raise enough to put cadillac1944 all in. Cadillac1944 called for about $65,000 more. According to Card Player’s Omaha Odds Calculator, the players chop the pot about 50 percent of the time with the flopped wheels.
However, the 9 fell on the turn, and the A landed on the river, giving DrugsOrMe a heart flush. The nosebleed regular raked in the $209,993 pot.
