Wattel took one card, and Ponzio two. Wattel bet, and Ponzio called. The second round followed the same pattern: Wattel took one, Ponzio two, and Ponzio called Wattel's bet.
On the third draw, Wattel took one card and Ponzio stood pat. Both checked. Ponzio showed a 10-7-5-4-2, and Wattel mucks.
Wattel has now slipped to 16,000. When we begin the next level, he'll have not even two big bets.
Both took one card on the second draw. This time Wattel checked, Sklansky bet, and Wattel called. Wattel took one on the third draw, and Sklansky stood pat. Both checked.
Sklansky showed an 8-6-4-3-2, and Wattel mucked. Sklansky is up to 86,000, and Wattel has slipped to 61,000.
Luong took two cards on the first draw, and Chase just one. Both stood pat thereafter.
Luong showed 8-7-6-4-3, and Chase mucked. We're down to nine.
Meanwhile, Luong has won another hand and has leapfrogged to the top of the leaderboard with 240,000.
"What's the matter, don't have any confidence in yourselves?" Mizrachi shouted from across the room.
On the second draw, Phan drew two to Baxter's one. Phan decided to check, then called after Baxter fired a bet. Both players stood pat on the third draw. Phan checked again, and Baxter fired again. Phan thought it over, then folded.
Raymer took two more cards on the third draw. Chase showed his 8-5-4-3-2. "I just need to make a seven," said Raymer. He had kept 6-5-2. He turned over the first card -- a seven! Still a chance. Alas, the second card was a deuce, pairing his hand, and Raymer went out in 11th.
