2-7 Lowball Triple Draw
Jason Mercier raised in the cutoff and called a three-bet by big blind Chris Brewer. Both players took one card on the draw, after which Brewer check-called a bet by Mercier.
Brewer still needed one on the second draw, with Mercier remaining pat behind. After another check, bet, and call, the roles reversed as Brewer stood pat and Mercier broke his hand by drawing one card.
They then checked it to showdown, where Brewer tabled 9x8x7x4x2x, and Mercier mucked what he claimed was a nine-eight-seven-five.
