After the second draw Margolis checked and Newberry bet. Arvidson called, Margolis raised, Newberry called and Arvidson called. All three players stood pat.
With no draws remaining Margolis bet and Newberry raised.
"Good Lord!" Arvidson commented, before folding his hand. Margolis called and showed a six-badugi with 6♣5♥2♦A♠. Newberry turned over a wheel with 4♦3♣2♠A♥ to drag in a massive pot.
Arvidson mentioned that he had folded a seven-badugi as Newberry was still stacking his chips.
