Josh Noy

Level 9 : Limits 1,500/3,000, 0 ante

A-5 Triple Draw

Kevin Gerhart was forced all in from the big blind, at risk against two opponents. Gerhart asked for four cards on the first draw, seeing the other two players draw two and check.

Gerhart then patted the second draw as both opponents took two and checked again. Another pat from Gerhart saw him turn up 8x6x5x4x2x for an eight-six, good enough to triple up for the moment.

A few hands later, Gerhart had lost those chips and was headed to the exit.
