Shakerchi Draws Into the Lead
Limit 2-7 Triple Draw
Phil Ivey raised with the AxKx7x6x2x and Talal Shakerchi three-bet with the Kx8x8x7x2x on the button before Matthew Ashton made it four bets with the 9x7x5x4x3x. Both Ivey and Shakerchi called as Ashton drew one while Ivey and Shakerchi drew two.
Ashton fell to a jack and checked while Shakerchi now had a QxJx to go with and checked, as did Ivey with his new Qx2x for a pair of deuces. Ashton discarded one and his two opponents took two new cards.
Ashton then received a queen while Shakerchi made an 8x7x5x3x2x and Ivey hit a QxJx7x6x2x. Ashton bet and Ivey called, Shakerchi then raised and Ashton was the only caller.
On the final draw, Ashton discarded one again while Shakerchi now patted and Ashton hit a worse card for the third draw in a row as he received a king in return. Ashton checked to Shakerchi, who bet and forced a fold to win the large pot without showdown.
