Claassen Scores a Big Double Through Flack
Level 17
: 4,000/8,000, 0 ante
Pot-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw
Christopher Claassen opened to 7,000 on the button and Layne Flack called in the small blind. Flack changed two and Claassen discarded one.
Then it went in a fast fashion. Flack checked, Claassen potted, Flack snap-repotted and Claassen said he was all-in to make things official. It was 29,700.
Both players stood pat on the remaining draws and showed their hands.
Layne Flack: 
Christopher Claassen: 
Both made eighty-seven but Claassen's third card was a four and he scooped a huge pot, climbing through the provisional standings.
