More Badeucey Action

Level 2 : 600/1,200, 0 ante

Badeucey

The draws were already completed and Robert Mizrachi proclaimed a three-card Badugi and seven-six before rolling over the {7-Clubs}/{6-Clubs}{4-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{2-Spades}. "I have a Badugi," Bariscan Betil replied and exposed the {10-Spades}{8-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}{3-Clubs}{2-Hearts}. Yueqi Zhu could not beat either of that and mucked, the pot was chopped between Mizrachi and Betil.
