2-7 Triple Draw

Down to just a few big bets, Andrew Brown found himself all in against Jyri Merivirta.

Catching the action on the second draw, Merivirta stood pat from the big blind as Brown drew two.

On the final draw, Merivirta stood pat with his {8-}{7-}{6-}{3-}{2-} as Brown drew two to his {7-}{5-}{2-}.

Brown squeezed his first card and it was the {10-}. Brown didn't bother looking at his second card as he was drawing dead, and he exited the tournament area.
