Picking action up on fourth street, action was checked to a short-stacked Leonard August, who bet, then received calls from Eric Buchman, Yuval Bronshtein, and Eric Kurtzman.

On fifth, now showing a pair of fives, August bet and commented, "maybe they'll let me win one finally". Buchman put in a full big bet and was called by Bronshtein and Kurtzman.

Buchman then checked sixth street, with Kurtzman now betting into the side pot. both Buchman and Bronshtein called.

On seventh it was checked to Kurtzman, who bet again and received calls from both remaining opponents with chips.

Kurtzman showed an eight seven, which would end up good for the low. Bronshtein showed trip nines, which August couldn't believe, as he had trip fives for high which wouldn't be good enough. He crumpled his cards and tossed them onto the table before leaving the room.
