Level 23 : 20,000/40,000, 0 ante

2-7 Triple Draw

A massive three-way pot has sent Ray Henson over the million chip mark.

Before the first draw, Henson raised in the cutoff, Eli Elezra called in the small blind, and Naoya Kihara made it three bets from the big blind. Henson and Elezra called.

Elezra drew two, Kihara patted, and Henson drew two.

Kihara bet and both of his opponents called.

The second draw saw Elezra and Henson each take one card, while Kiyara patted again.

Again, Kiyara bet, but this time was raised by Henson. Elezra weighed his optioned, then folded.

Both remaining players patted, but Kiyara this time checked to Henson who bet. Kiyara called and received bad news as Henson showed to earn the huge pot.
