No-Limit 2-7 Lowball Draw
From under the gun, Bryce Yockey raised to 27,000 and Kristopher Tong in the cutoff three-bet to 78,000 which Yockey called. Both patted and Yockey then checked. Tong carefully checked his stack before he moved forward a bet of 200,000.
Yockey eventually called after a brief tank and Tong showed the 7x5x4x3x2x for a wheel.
"That's a good hand," Matt Glantz exclaimed and Tong told Yockey "you lost the minimum".
Yockey's reply didn't take long as he exclaimed "well, I almost folded ... I am haunted by wheels in this tournament".
