2-7 Triple Draw

The action folded to Naseem Salem on the button, and he raised to 1,600. Daniel Negreanu made it two bets to go from the small blind, and Salem called.

Both players drew two cards and Negreanu checked to Salem who bet 800. Negreanu called and drew two more, as Salem stood pat.

Negreanu checked, Salem bet, and Negreanu called. It was now Negreanu who stood pat, and Salem opted to break and drew one.

Both players checked, and Negreanu fanned his {8-}{7-}{6-}{4-}{2-}.

Salem mucked, and said he broke a nine.
