2-7 Triple Draw

Action folded to Robert Williamson III in the small blind and he raised against Team PokerStars Pro Daniel Negreanu's big blind. Negreanu made the call and it was time to draw. Williamson took one and Negreanu took two. Williamson bet and Negreanu made the call.

For the second draw, Williamson took one and Negreanu took one. Williamson checked and Negreanu bet. Williamson called.

On the final draw, Williamson took one and Negreanu stood pat. Williamson checked, Negreanu bet and Williamson called.

Williamson showed a {10-}{7-}{6-}{4-}{3-} and Negreanu mucked his hand, getting even shorter with just one-fifth of the starting stack left to his name.
