More for Kihara and Becker
Limit 2-7 Triple Draw
Picking up the action prior to the second draw, Naoya Kihara and Bryce Yockey both invested a bet each. Kihara then took one while Yockey took two and Kihara bet. Yockey raised and that sent his opponent into the tank as he carefully checked the stack behind before making the call.
On the final draw, Kihara patted and Kihara discarded one. Both checked and the 
of Kihara won the pot much to the relief of the mixed game specialist from Japan.
