The Price Is Right

No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw
The player under the gun opened with a raise to 2,000 and received a late position call and a call from Brendan Taylor in the small blind. Robert Price then announced an all in bet for about 30,000 from the big blind and the original raiser tank-folded. The next player folded as well and action was back on Taylor who called. Taylor took one new card and Price stood pat.
Price:

Smith Over James (Bamboozled at Badugi)
Level 13
Badugi
Kenna James opened with a bet from middle position and got a single caller in Howard Smith from the small blind. When Smith only asked for one card on the first draw, James pretended to be taken aback.
"Only one, eh?" said James. "Okay, I'll take two… if you had taken two, I'd have taken one," he added.
"I've gotta check," grinned Smith, and James promptly fired a bet. Smith then check-raised. "Whoa!" said James. "I knew you were creative… okay, I'll be seeing you at showdown." James called.
On the last two draws, Smith stood pat and James drew one card. After the second draw Smith bet and James called, but on the end Smith just checked and James checked behind as well.
James tabled 
, and the dealer explained he had a 3-card hand. "I have a seven," said Smith leaning forward, turning over 
.
"The old Badugi check-raise!" said a smiling James as postscript to the hand. "You gotta love it!"

Chiu Chiu Train Leaves The Station
Level 13
Stud
| Sebastion Saffari |  /    /  |
| David Chiu |  / /  |
We arrived at fourth street to see David Chiu all in and at risk against Sebastion Saffari. Chiu was in the lead with his queens in the hole and Saffari would need to improve without Chiu improving to send him home. By seventh street, Saffari had made tens up and was ahead of Chiu. Chiu squeezed his final card and was looking for a queen, a card to make a better two pair, or a diamond. In the end, he did not find it as he dejectedly flung the on the table and made a gracious exit from the tournament area.
After absorbing Chiu's stack, Saffari is now sitting on about 49,000 in chips.
