Nacho Wins Deuce With an Ace
Limit 2-7 Triple Draw
It was Nacho Barbero's turn to choose a game and he took his time sifting through the 20 mixed game placards as Daniel Negreanu and others at the table waited for the high-stakes Argentinian pro to make a decision.
After getting to the final placard, Barbero flipped back to the top of the stack and made another run through before landing on Limit 2-7 Triple Draw.
An early position player raised to 3,000 and Barbero and the button called. Barbero drew one and his opponents drew two.
Action checked to Barbero and he bet and drew one. Both opponents called and drew one. Each player again checked and drew one and checked once more after the third draw.
Barbero showed A?6?4?3?2? as he picked up an ace at the end to significantly weaken his hand. But it was enough to win as both of his opponents paired at the end and mucked in defeat.
"I'm a genius. I'm a f***ing genius," Barbero said as he took in the pot.
