Chance of Winning? Slim.

Badugi

We picked up the action between Travis Pearson and Kevin Chance just after the first draw; Chance check-called Pearson's bet, then Pearson stood pat and Chance drew one before check-calling Pearson again. Chance took one more card and checked, but Pearson bet all-in for about 25,000.

Pearson called, showing down the {A-}{2-}{3-} ({x-}) for A-B-C, but was crippled to just 25,000 when Pearson showed down a badugi of {4-}{5-}{6-}{9-}. 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 {A-}{2-}{4-}{8-} badugi to trump Fukumoto's {3-}{4-}{6-}{J-} badugi and double up.
