High-Stakes Poker Pro Hits Two Straight Flushes on Double Board Bomb Pot

Poker Pro Hits Two Straight Flushes 47253.htm Pokernews 🕒 2 🗒️ 423

Danielle “dmoongirl” Andersen, a longtime high-stakes poker pro, hit a hand at Aria in Las Vegas that would make any poker player envious. She tweeted out a photo and brief video of a hand that involved two straight flushes coolering multiple players in a double board pot-limit Omaha bomb pot cash game.

The hand occurred in a game in the Table 1 high roller room (formerly Ivey Room). Andersen, a regular in big games, has played plenty of sizable pots in her life. She’s certainly won and lost numerous coolers and likely hit a straight flush or a royal flush at least a handful of times. But the hand she shared on X is tough to top.

Double Board Bomb Pot Madness

Danielle Andersen Poker Double board bomb pot PLO is as action of a poker game as any. Each player is dealt four face-down cards, just like in traditional PLO. But where it differs is the players all put in a call to go directly to the flop — no preflop action — and two separate boards are dealt. Players then attempt to make the best five-card hand possible from each board, and it is possible to scoop the entire pot, winning both boards.

Given that every player dealt cards gets to see the flop in a bomb pot game, the chances of multiple players hitting a big hand increases. And it increases even further in a double board game. So, seeing some monster hands in double board bomb pot PLO isn’t shocking. Still, the hand below is about as rare as they come given multiple players were coolered against two straight flushes.

The pot, from the pictures above, appears to have over $20,000 in the middle with some additional all in money to be added. Andersen had 10*♥6♥4♥7♦* in the hole.

The top board came out 7*♥9♥8♦8♥A♣, giving “dmoongirl” a straight flush with 10♥6♥. She hit a second straight flush on the bottom board — 3♥5♥8♣10♣2♥* — with 6*♥4♥*.

Two straight flushes in the same hand is rare even for double board pot-limit Omaha. What’s even rarer is to hit those hands against full houses. And that’s exactly what happened in Andersen’s favor.

One player held Q*♥10♠9♣9♦* for nines-full on the top board, while the other player had A*♥A♦5♣4♣* for aces-full on the top board and a straight on the bottom board.

“You know what’s better than one straight flush? Two of them,” Andersen asked and answered in a brief video taken following the hand by Paul Gunness.

That answer is tough to argue.
