Level 24 : Limits 40,000/80,000, 0 ante

Blinds: 20,000-40,000
Limits: 40,000-80,000

Arthur Morris put in a raise from the cutoff, Dominick Sarle three-bet in the big blind, and Morris four-bet in response. Sarle called and drew one card, prompting Morris to stand pat.

Sarle check-called bets by Morris after the draw, and did so too when he had drawn one card against the pat of Morris on the second draw. He took one more card on the final draw, but this time the action checked down.

Sarle showed J♠6♣4♦2♥ for a jack-badugi. Morris mucked his cards in defeat, and the pot was shipped to Sarle.

"Eight," Schreiber declared as he turned over 8♥7♠4♦2♣ for an eight and Tilton tapped the table, left with just half a small blind.

Blinds: 20,000-40,000
Limits: 40,000-80,000

Brian Tate raised in the cutoff, being called by Anthony Arvidson on the button. Arthur Morris then three-bet in the big blind, Arvidson put in a fourth bet, and Arvidson capped the betting at five bets.

Morris and Tate both called. Morris was the only one to draw a card, as Tate and Arvidson stood pat. The action checked to Arvidson after the draw, who fired a bet.

Morris and Tate called again, and the same drawing sequence took place. After both check-called Arvidson's bet again, Morris drew one more card, and Tate remained pat.

After the final draw, Arvidson tossed in a final bet. Morris let his cards go, leaving him with just under three big bets, while Tate called off.

Arvidson showed 8♠6♣3♥2♦ for an eight-badugi, winning the pot when Tate's cards hit the muck.

Morris drew two, two, then one while Dourado stood pat the whole time.

Arthur Morris: 9♣4♥3♠ Xx All in
Aloisio Dourado: 9♠8♥6♣5♦

"Not drawing dead," Morris muttered as he peeled his final card. He peeled up a 10♦ to make a ten badugi, but it was no good against Dourado's nine and Morris exited the tournament area.
