The action was picked up on the first draw, where Stephen Speck under the gun and Paul Clotar in the hijack each took one card. Speck check-called a bet from Clotar, and each player exchanged one card again.
Speck decided to lead out, Clotar raised all in for 26,000 total, and Speck called after confirming the amount. Speck stood pat on the final draw, leading Clotar to toss his K♠ away in favor of a new card.
Speck tabled 9♦7♣6♠A♥ for a nine-badugi, while Clotar showed Q♦7♥4♣A♦, having bricked his final draw.
After the hand had been completed, the players noticed the dealer had not burned a card before the final draw, but there was nothing that could be done for Clotar, who was forced to take his exit.
