2-7 Triple Draw

Yehuda Buchalter raised his button and Von Altizer defended her big blind. She decided to draw three cards while Buchalter just needed two.

Altizer then check-called a bet after the first draw and drew two cards, Buchalter followed suit, showing a 2x discard in the process.

Altizer checked once more after the second draw and Buchalter bet after he had "seen one good one." This was enough to let Altizer lay down her hand.

Buchalter tabled 8x6x5x4x2x for the table to see while he stacked up his newly acquired chips. On other tables, Yueqi Zhu and Ari Engel were seen joining the field.

Badugi

Action was picked up just before the first draw between three players and around 5,000 in the middle. Patrick Gunn drew two from the small blind, Roland Israelashvili drew one from the big blind and a player on the button drew one.

After the first draw Gunn checked, Israelashvili bet, the button raised and Gunn made it three bets. Both Israelashvili and the button made the call, drawing one each while Gunn stood pat.

Gunn bet again after the second draw and was called by both opponents. Gunn stood pat again, Israelashvili drew one and the player on the button stood pat.

With no draws remaining Gunn bet, Israelashvili folded and the player on the button called. The button showed 8♠6♥4♦A♣ for an eight-six badugi but Gunn had him beat with 8♦5♥4♣A♠ for an eight-five badugi to take the pot.
