Badugi

Billy Baxter opened for a raise first to act and Joe Wagganer pushed all in. Since they're playing limit poker, Baxter assumed it was a raise to 15,000 and called. When he was informed Wagganer had more behind, he opted to fold instead.

The dealer was dragging the cards in and Baxter reached out.

"Lemme see that hand," he said, turning over {a-Diamonds}{2-Diamonds}{3-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} and getting some chuckles out of his opponents.

"You are gettin' a little squirrelly over there aren't you?" asked Chris Vitch. "If you're gonna do it, that's the hand to do it with."

"I've never done that," Baxter confessed. "But I couldn't in good conscience fold that hand."

"I understand."
