"Mike, do you realize we're among the top 30 Triple Draw players in the world right now?" Gary Fritz said to tablemate Mike Thorpe.
"I've known Mike for a long time, and I can say he's definitely one of the top 31 players," Fritz added.
Thorpe then raised under the gun and Jason Papastavrou reraised in the cutoff. Thorpe called and they both drew two.
Thorpe led out with a bet and Papastavrou called. Thorpe drew one and Papastavrou two. Thorpe then bet all in and Papastavrou called.
Thorpe stood pat with 8x6x5x4x2x, and Papastavrou was already drawing dead with 9x6x3x2x as he took one. His last card was an inconsequential Ax and Thorpe doubled up.
