2-7 Limit Triple Draw
Michael Saltzburg opened up the action with a raise from under the gun and Mike Wattel committed the remainder of his tiny stack on his direct left. Scott Clements then called out of the small blind and Chris Bjorin got out of the way in the big blind.
Saltzburg drew one, Wattel drew two and Clements drew three. Clements check-called a bet here and then drew two, while Saltzburg stood pat. Wattel drew two and Clements then folded when Saltzburg bet. The last draw saw Wattel draw one and Saltzburg stay pat again.
Saltzburg tabled , with his ninety-seven good enough to see Wattel's cards into the muck, flashing a jack-eight low as he did so.
