After just a few hands of the new level, David Lin raised the button to 250,000 and Naoya Kihara three-bet the big blind to 1,100,000. Lin four-bet jammed for 4,400,000, causing Kihara to go into the tank.

After thinking for around two minutes, Kihara put in the call to give himself a shot at winning the tournament. Kihara opted to draw one and Lin stood pat.

David Lin: 10x8x5x4x2x All in
Naoya Kihara: 6x5x3x2x

Lin had a pat ten and just needed to fade a ten, nine, eight, or seven to double-up into a huge chip lead.

Kihara flipped the card and he caught exactly what he needed in a 7x to give him a seven-six.

Lin had to settle for a runner-up finish and Kihara was the winner of Event #17: $10,000 No-Limit 2-7 Lowball Draw Championship.
