Badeucy
Nicholas Stille raised from the cutoff and Javier Francort defended his big blind off a short stack.
Francort drew no less than four cards and Stille two. Francort check-called a bet.
Both took two on the second draw as Francort got his final 1,000 into the middle.
On the final draw both players still took two cards.
Javier Francourt: 8♦6♥5♠
Nicholas Stille: 7♠5♣3♥
Both players needed some improvement. Stille went first and revealed the 8♣ and 5♦, finishing with an eight badugi and a pair of fives low.
Francort was in good shape to get half. However, he first peeled the 8♠, making a higher pair, and his final card was the 5♥. He was scooped and hit the rail in 26th place.
