Ashton Finds a Key Scoop
Level 24
: 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante
Omaha-8
From under the gun, Kristopher Tong limped in. Owais Ahmed raised on the button, Matthew Ashton called from the small blind, Mike Gorodinsky called from the big blind, and Tong called following his limp. That brought the four players to the 
flop, and Ashton checked. Gorodinsky also checked, as did Tong, before Ahmed fired a bet. Ashton raised, Gorodinsky and Tong folded, then Ahmed called.
The turn was was the 
, and Ashton fired a bet. Ahmed made the call to see the 
come on the river. Ashton checked, and Ahmed checked behind.
Ashton showed the 
for an ace-five low and two pair, sixes and threes. Ahmed showed the 
for the second best hand for both the high and the low, giving Ashton a key scoop.
