Pot-Limit 2-7 Triple Draw
Action was picked up after the first draw in a hand between Warwick Mirzikinian in the cutoff, Mike Watson on the button, and the player in the big blind with 6,800 in the middle.
Mirzikinian bet 4,000 and only Watson called.
Both players took one on the second draw. Mirzikinian check-called a bet of 8,000 from Watson.
On the final draw, Mirzikinian stood pat while Watson drew one. Mirzikinian led for pot of 30,800 (28,000 effective) and Watson was left in an uncomfortable spot. He eventually called off for his tournament life.
Mike Watson: 8x7x4x3x2x 
Warwick Mirzikinian: 10x8x6x5x3x
Watson held #10 to collect the full double in a massive pot at the expense of the crippled Mirzikinian.
