Waxman Calls River Unsuccessfully

Mike Patrick

Level 15

No-Limit Hold'em

On a completed board reading , Matt Waxman was on the button facing a 48,000 chip bet from Alex Livingston in the big blind. The bet represented over half of Waxman's remaining stack.

Waxman had the clock called on him, and as the countdown hit one, Waxman dropped in calling chips, only to see Livington turn over for a flopped full house, leaving Waxman with just 30,000 in chips.

Meanwhile, at another table, David Mock who had been nursing a short stack for a couple of hours finally lost his stack and has been eliminated, bringing the field to 41.

Strebkov Eliminates Two In Crazy Triple Draw Hand

Mike Patrick

Level 16

Pot-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw

Before the draws, Ryan Laplante and Cody Wells were all-in for approximately 100,000 each versus Denis Strebkov who had both players covered.

On the first and second draws, each player took one card.

On the third draw, Strebkov was first to act and patted his hand, Wells then took some time with his decision and chose to pat. Laplante patted behind as well.

Here's where things got interesting.

No one immediately tabled their hand, and in the time it took while Wells was making his decision, it seemed as though everyone lost track of the draws.

Strebkov made a 'stand pat' motion, and then Wells pulled a card out of his hand and put it on the table. Laplante patted again, the dealer slid Wells a new card, and somehow a fourth draw took place!

At this point, the hands were tabled and fortunately, the outcome of the hand wasn't impacted as Strebkov showed , Laplante showed , and after sweating that potentially controversial fourth draw, Wells drew a to go with his .

Disaster was averted and Strebkov won a huge pot, eliminating Wells and Laplante.

Mike Patrick

Level 16

No-Limit 2-7 Single Draw

Ray Henson raised on the button, and Michael Binger moved all-in for 21,000 in the big blind. Henson made the call and each player drew one card. Hands were then turned over for the sweat.

Binger didn't have much of a sweat as Henson rolled over a for a straight, essentially killing his hand and awarding the double-up to Binger after he turned over an inconsequential .
