Yuri Dzivielevski raised to 130,000 in the cutoff and Scott Bohlman called in the big blind.
The flop rolled out K?K?6? and Bohlman checked over to Dzivielevski who bet 125,000 which Bohlman called.
On the turn 8?, Bohlman checked a second time over to Dzivielevski who sized up to 325,000. Bohlman thought for a bit and eventually decided to call, with both players checking the A? river.
Bohlman turned over 7?7? for kings and sevens, but Dzivielevski turned over A?3? for aces up and he took down another significant pot.
Masafumi Iijima raised in the cutoff and Scott Bohlman on the button three-bet for Iijima to call. Both drew two and checked, then drew two again to check to the final draw. Both took one each and Iijima bet, Bohlman folded after studying his table neighbour for a few seconds.
In the last hand of 2-7 Triple Draw, Bohlman raised in the cutoff and Yuri Dzivielevski three-bet on the button. Nicholas Julia called in the small blind and Bohlman came along. Julia and Dzivielevski took one while Bohlman took two new cards.

Julia and Bohlman took one each on the final draw and Dzivielevski patted again. Julia was the only one to check-call Dzivielevski's bet and mucked when he was shown the 7x6x5x4x2x.

Earlier this year on an ordinary Monday afternoon, a bespectacled man walked into the Gold & Silver Pawn Shop on Las Vegas Blvd. Tucked under his arm was an uninteresting box that only he knew contained something rather interesting �C a pair of gold watches dating back more than 40 years.
These were not your run-of-the-mill wristwear, but rather evidence of a unique and often overlooked time of poker history, a year when the World Series of Poker (WSOP) gold bracelet, now the game��s highest accolade, was replaced in favor of watches.
1982 WSOP watches
The man holding the box was David Sklansky, who in 1978 forever changed poker by advocating a mathematical approach to the game in his groundbreaking book The Theory of Poker. Nicknamed ��The Mathematician,�� he proved his prowess just four years later when he won two WSOP tournaments in five days.
First, he won the 1982 WSOP Event #7: $800 Mixed Doubles Limit Seven Card Stud, a tournament that paired one man with one woman, alongside Dani Kelly, and followed that up by taking down Event #12: $1,000 Limit 5-Card Draw High. A year later, the Binions reverted back to the beloved bracelets players know today, and Sklansky captured his third piece of WSOP hardware by winning Event #11: $1,000 Limit Omaha.
It was a remarkable accomplishment, and for more than four decades he��s kept safe the evidence of his victories, both of which still worked. So, why was Sklansky carrying his 1982 WSOP gold watches, two of only 15 ever awarded, into a pawn shop? Well, he was looking to sell them of course, but not to just any of the dozens of pawn shops spread across Las Vegas. Oh no, he was walking into arguably the most famous pawn shop in the world, the home to the wildly popular television show Pawn Stars, and he was there to do it with cameras rolling.
Nicholas Julia raised in the cutoff and Yuri Dzivielevski defended his big blind.
Both players drew two and Dzivielevski bet the first betting round which Julia called.
On the second draw, Dzivielevski stood pat and Julia drew one, which saw Dzivielevski bet and Julia call a second time.
The third draw saw Dzivielevski stand pat and Julia drew one with both players checking. Dzivielevski turned over 10x7x6x4x3x for ten-seven which was good for the pot.
Scott Bohlman: A?A?3? / A?J?4?9?
Tomasz Gluszko: 10?6?5? / 10?3?2?5?
Yuri Dzivielevski: 4?2? / 3?6?J?J? / 7?
Scott Bohlman completed with an ace showing and Tomasz Gluszko raised, Yuri Dzivielevski called and so did Bohlman.
On fourth street, Bohlman checked his lead and Gluszko bet, Dzivielevski raised and both opponents called.
Bohlman then bet fifth street and Gluszko raised, Dzivielevski called and Bohlman called once more.
Gluszko only had 75,000 behind and was all-in on sixth street with both opponents coming along.
Dzivielevski then check-called a bet by Bohlman on seventh, who showed a set of aces. Dzivielevski revealed his low and Gluszko sighed vividly. "Wow you rivered me? I still have outs" before he grabbed his down cards.
"Oh, you didn't look?" Nicholas Julia asked before Gluszko flipped over his cards one by one. Having ended up with two pair and no low, his chips were chopped up and Gluszko departed in fifth place for $46,094.
