Fishman Shortest
Limits: 30,000-60,000
Ray Fishman raised on the button, and Matthew Schreiber defended in the big blind. Each player drew two cards on the first draw, after which Schreiber led out and Fishman called.
Schreiber improved to a one-card draw, while Fishman still took two. Schreiber bet again, Fishman called, and each changed one card on the final draw, after which they checked it to showdown.
Schreiber tabled 4♦3♠A♣Xx for a three-card four, which pipped Fishman's 5♦2♠A♥Xx and took down the pot.
A couple of hands later, Fishman raised in the small blind and saw Anthony Arvidson call in the big blind. Fishman drew one card, seeing Arvidson draw two.
Arvidson called Fishman's subsequent bet and drew one card after Fishman had done so first. This slowed Fishman down, as he check-called a bet from Arvidson before the final draw.
Fishman still needed one card, but Arvidson stood pat. The players then checked it showdown, and Arvidson's K♠6♣2♦A♥ badugi was good enough to win the pot.
