2-7 Triple Draw

In a battle of blinds, James Woods and Jeff Lisandro went to the first draw where Woods drew one and Lisandro two. Woods bet and Lisandro called.

Woods patted and Lisandro drew for two again. Lisandro called one more bet and drew one more time but folded when Woods made another bet.

"I'm gonna give zero information in this tournament," Woods said, mucking his hand and following it with a laugh.

How Many Deuces Are in a Deck?

Niveau 1 : 150/300, 0 ante

2-7 Triple Draw

Table 419 in the Gold Section is arguably the most entertaining one, with James Woods, Jeff Lisandro, Andrew Kelsall, Carol Fuchs and Billy Baxter sharing the deck of cards.

In a hand of 2-7, Kelsall raised from the first position and Fuchs countered with a three-bet. Action folded around to Kelsall who called and drew. Fuchs also drew two and continued betting. Kelsall check-called.

He took two again while Fuchs drew one on the second draw. Kelsall checked in the dark and Fuchs bet again.

Kelsall lifted his cards, looked at them and said: "Three deuces," giving up.

Fuchs, however, disagreed: "You can't have three deuces because I have two."

Kelsall amended his statement to "three sevens," and the hand was over.

A-5 Triple Draw

Jesse Martin won this event last year and he's off to a nice start in 2018.

He made it three bets preflop from the big blind and it went three ways to the first draw. The small blind and the cutoff each took two, while Martin drew one. Martin kept the lead with a bet and two calls. Draws went the same, but this time Martin's bet chased away the small blind.

On the the final draw, Martin patted and his opponent took a card. Martin checked and showed down for the win when his opponent checked back.

Badugi

One of the most experienced mixed games players in the world, James Obst had been waiting to take home his first bracelet until last year when he scooped the $10k Razz event. Previously, Obst came close to winning the gold in this very event. He is defending his runner-up finish and the Australian seems more than ready.

Obst is off to a fine start, having won a four-way pot while sitting on the button. His right-hand opponent raised and Obst made it three bets. Chris Vitch came along and a player in the big blind joined the contest as well as the cutoff.

All four players continued to the second draw where Vitch again drew for one card, big blind for two. Cutoff patted and Obst took one. Cutoff fired another bet but Obst raised, getting rid of both blinds. Cutoff called.

Both remaining players patted on the last draw. Obst showed his and added a solid chunk to his stack, climbing to 16,500 right away.
