Brunson called and Diebold turned AxKx7x for 7-6-5-3-A. Brunson had 3x2x, then exposed a 4x to make 7-4-3-2-A and win the pot.

Wilkinson Scoops Five-Way Pot, Eliminates Chu

Level 11 : 4,000/8,000, 0 ante

Seven Card Stud Hi-Lo

Hansu Chu: 743/3K7K
Scott Seiver: 775/6949
Wil Wilkinson: AA3/2K2A
David "ODB" Baker: 852/56106
John Racener: XxXx/J4 - folded fourth street

With Hansu Chu all in on third street, action was picked up on fourth street where it checked to David "ODB" Baker, who bet and got called by Scott Seiver and Wil Wilkinson, while John Racener folded.

Wilkinson paired deuces on fifth to take the betting lead but opted to check, as did Baker. Seiver bet and got called by both remaining opponents.

On sixth street, Seiver added a pair of nines to his hand and bet again, still getting a pair of calls.

Seventh street saw a trio of checks and the hands were revealed.

Wilkinson showed a full house of aces full of deuces, which would scoop the huge pot as no one held a qualifying low that could take half, while Chu's sevens and threes left him with a trip to the rail.
