2-7 Triple Draw
Benny Glaser opened from under the gun and received calls from Michael Balan in the small blind and Schuyler Thornton in the big blind. All three players drew two.
Action checked around to Glaser who bet after the first draw and both opponents called. Balan drew one, Thornton drew two and Glaser drew one.
Glaser bet again when checked to after the second draw. Balan raised, Thornton called and Glaser folded.
For the final draw the two remaining players stood pat before Balan check-called a bet from Thornton, who showed a seven with 7x6x4x3x2x. Balan mucked and Thornton took down a healthy pot.
