Thornton Pips Salem

Level 14

A-5 Triple Draw

Schuyler Thornton raised in the hijack and called when Naseem Salem made it three bets in the cutoff. Each player drew two cards on the first draw, after which they checked to the second draw and took two cards each again.

Thornton then bet, Salem raised all in, and Thornton called. They both changed one card on the final draw and showed down.

Naseem Salem: 5x4x3xAx All in
Schuyler Thornton: 4x3x2xAx

Both players had a wheel draw, and they both drew a 9x. Thornton's nine-four bested the nine-five of Salem, sending the recent bracelet winner out of the tournament.

Earlier, Allen Kessler had been eliminated at another table.
