A-5 Triple Draw

The hand was discovered after the third draw and a check from Mike Gorodinsky, which prompted his opponent Adam Friedman to fire out a bet. After a few moments, Gorodinsky called and mucked when Friedman tabled {6-}{5-}{4-}{3-}{2-} for a six-five low and was awarded the pot.

No Limit Hold'em

After losing a large pot to Andrew Kelsall in Stud Eight or Better, Daniel Negreanu shoved for his last 75,000 from the cutoff and was called by Matt Glantz in the big blind.

"I only looked at one," Glantz said.

Matt Glantz: {a-Hearts}{2-Hearts}
Daniel Negreanu: {6-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}

The board ran out {a-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{q-Spades}{9-Hearts}{4-Diamonds} — providing no help to Negreanu and eliminating him in ninth place.
