Mike Thorpe opened from the button and was called by a player in the big blind. Thorpe drew three while the big blind drew one.

Both players checked after the first draw, drew one and then checked again. Thorpe, not realizing there was still one draw remaining, revealed that he had a queen. Both players then drew one.

With no draws remaining the big blind check-called a bet from Thorpe.

"I started with this" Thorpe declared, showing 7x6x4x3x, "And ended with this" before showing that he had drawn a 2x on the final draw giving him number two.

"I don't start with the deuce, I like to end with the deuce" Thorpe added as he took the pot.
