Clayton Doubles Twice
Badugi
Shaun Deeb opened from the cutoff, folding out all other players except Russell Clayton who had recently been left with just 30,000 and was automatically all in from the big blind.
Deeb drew two for each draw while Clayton drew one for the first two draws and stood pat for the final draw.
Russell Clayton: Q♣J♠7♥4♦
Shaun Deeb: A♣3♠
Deeb was drawing thin against Clayton's Queen-badugi and couldn't catch up when he drew 9♣6♦ for a three-card nine resulting in a full double up for Clayton.
2-7 Triple Draw
Two hands later at the same table, Chad Eveslage opened from the hijack and Russell Clayton three-bet from the button, moving all in for 60,000 in the process. Shaun Deeb called in the big blind and Eveslage called. Deeb and Eveslage each drew two while Clayton stood pat.
After the first draw Deeb checked, Eveslage bet and Deeb folded leaving Clayton at risk against Eveslage, who drew two and then drew one. Clayton stood pat both times.
Eveslage had a seven-six draw but paired his six while Clayton had held up with 9x7x6x4x2x for a pat-nine to score another full double up.
