A player with a showing completed and the player next to him with a trey called. Allen Cunningham was next to act with a and he raised the action. Both of the aforementioned opponents called.

Chiu Falls

Level 5

Badugi

We picked up with the action on the final draw to see David Chiu already all in and at risk against two players. The first player to act drew one card, Chiu stood pat, and his late position opponent stood pat. All three players checked the final betting round.

Chiu showed for a nine badugi, but was ultimately bested by his late position opponent's for a nine-three badugi. Chiu shook his head as he stood up and took his leave from the tournament area.
