Event 4: 5th Place - Lynch

$450 + $50 Omaha H/L 8B

Level 21: Limits 16k/32k

Robert Lynch (Manalapan, NJ)

$2,444

Hal Rotholz raised to 32k from the cutoff, then Hsiao Liu raised again to 48k from the button.  Robert Lynch (sb) raised to 64k, leaving only 2k behind.  Hal and Hsiao both called.

On the flop of A♠K♦2♠, it was checked to Liu, who bet 16k.  Robert tossed in his last 2k and Hal folded.

Robert:  QT52 (pair of deuces)
Liu:  K♠K♥J♥T♠ (set of Kings, flush draw)

The last two came Q♠5♣ and Liu made the flush on the turn to scoop the pot since Robert couldn't make a low.  He busted out in 5th place, earning $2,444.

With that pot, Hsiao Liu chipped up to over 600k.

Rough counts for the other three:

Hal Rotholz - 320k
Leonardo Plaermo - 160k
Ron Schiffman - 80k
