2-7 Triple Draw
"You're friends with Joe, right? Serock?" asked Sam Cohen to Jeff Madsen very early in the tournament when she joined the table.
"Yep," responded Madsen, before letting Cohen know he and Serock were good friends. From this point, Cohen and Madsen chatted a bit and were cordial with one another, sharing a mutual friend in Serock, but as the old saying goes, there are no friends at the poker table.
From the cutoff seat, the three-time World Series of Poker gold bracelet winner, Madsen, raised. Cohen called all in for 175 from the small blind, and then Mel Judah, a member of the Australian Poker Hall of Fame, called from the big blind.
On the first draw, Cohen drew two, Judah took one, and Madsen took one. Judah then check-called a bet from Madsen, as Cohen awaited her fate as the all-in player.
For the second draw, all three players opted to take one card. Judah then led with a bet, Madsen put in a raise, and Judah called.
All three players stood pat for the final drawing round, and Judah checked to Madsen. Madsen bet, and Judah folded to give Madsen the sizable side pot.
Cohen showed the 
for a nine-eight low. Her hand was no good against Madsen's 
, though, and she was eliminated from the tournament.
