Lex Veldhuis led out with bets the whole way through to seventh street with Paul Evans calling. They both checked the river and Evans said he had a pair of threes before Veldhuis showed his hand for two pair.
Cliff Josephy caught the bring-in, then watched as three other people limped in. He mentioned that he hadn't looked at his hole cards and was afraid he'd find something that would get him in trouble. On fourth street, Awad bet and folded two other players. Josephy looked at his down cards and then called.
The action was the same on fifth street, with Awad betting the better board and Josephy calling. On sixth street, Josephy paired and Awad caught good again.
