Pearson called, showing down the () for A-B-C, but was crippled to just 25,000 when Pearson showed down a badugi of . Then in the very next hand, Chance got it all-in after Kendall Fukumoto raised from early position.
Fukumoto patted all the way while Chance drew one per draw to end up with an badugi to trump Fukumoto's badugi and double up.
