2-7 Triple Draw

Marco Johnson opened with a raise, and Ylon Schwartz was the only caller, heads-up to the draw.

Each of them took one card, and Johnson check-called a bet. He took another card and checked, while Schwartz stood pat and bet again. Johnson check-raised this time, and Schwartz leaned forward and knelt on his chair, suddenly interested in the hand. He called the extra bet, then called another one after both men stood pat on the final round.

Johnson showed {8-}{7-}{6-}{3-}{2-}, and it was second-best to Schwartz's {8-}{6-}{5-}{4-}{3-}. With that pot, Schwartz moves up to 120,000, while "CrazyMarco" slides all the down to just 34,000.
