Badugi

In the last hand at the previous level, John Hennigan raised first to act and was called by Billy Baxter before Mike Leah three-bet in the cutoff. Action folded back to Hennigan and Baxter, who each called and drew one while Leah stayed pat. Leah kept the lead and draws repeated before action got even heavier.

After the second draw, Leah's bet was called by Hennigan before Baxter raised. Leah called and Hennigan called. Hennigan was the only one to draw and he checked the end. Baxter bet and Leah called. Hennigan came out with a raise. Baxter called.

"I guess I'm going to regret slowplaying this hand," Leah said with a sigh. "Should have three-bet after the second draw."

He called.

"Eight-four?" Hennigan asked hopefully.

"Nope," Leah said, spreading {7-Hearts}{6-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}. "OK, I'm glad I slowplayed. I was having bad thoughts, John. I just lost with a pat six."
