A short-stacked Joe Hachem folded his bring-in after Shawn Sheikhan, Richard Ashby, and Mike Watson each got a pair of bets in on third street.
After Sheikhan checked fourth street, Ashby bet and Watson raised, forcing Sheikan out of the pot. Ashby called, then led out on fifth street, with Watson now calling.
Sixth street saw Watson pick up a jack and take over the betting lead. He did just that with Ashby now calling.
Watson bet again on seventh and Ashby called, revealing that both players had missed lows, but ended up with two pair.
Ashby's eights and fives took the pot over Watson's fours and threes.
