Scotty's 8-6 Good

2-7 Triple Draw:

Phil Ivey raised from middle position and Scotty Nguyen reraised from the small blind. Ivey made the call. On the first draw, Nguyen stood pat and Ivey drew one card. Then, Nguyen fired a bet and Ivey made the call.

On the next draw, Nguyen stood pat again and Ivey took one card again. Nguyen then bet and Ivey called.

On the third and final draw, Nguyen tapped the table once more. Ivey drew another card. Nguyen opted to check this time and said, "All right, baby." Ivey checked behind. Ivey then showed a jack to show that he made a jack-low, but Nguyen tabled his {8-}{6-}{5-}{4-}{2-}. Nguyen moved up to nearly 200,000 while Ivey dropped back to 140,000.
