Rheem Wins as Dealer Runs Out of Cards
Level 6
2-7 Triple Draw
Four players, including defending champion Kijoon Park and Chino Rheem, went to the last draw where Rheem, Park, and a player in the small blind all took one, while an under-the-gun player stood pat.
The dealer, though, only had one card remaining in the deck and the floor had to be called over. It was ruled that the discarded cards had to be shuffled back into the deck and the final draw dealt.
Rheem, in the big blind, led out with a bet and only the under-the-gun player called. "Nine-seven," Rheem said, turning over 9x7x4x3x2x to win the pot.
