Wagner Quarters Saakyants
Level 16
Baducey
Michael Wagner and David Mize both drew two on the second draw, while Artur Saakyants took one. Wagner then bet from the big blind and Mize called, while Saakyants called off his last chips.
Wagner took one more on the third draw and bet. Mize folded.
"I have a wheel," Wagner said, showing 7♥5♠4♠3♠2♦.
"You have a wheel? Jeez, I have number two," Saakyants said as he turned over 7♠6♥4♦3♦2♥ and took back only a quarter of the pot while Wagner took three-quarters, since both had the same 7-3-2 three-badugi
"After a four on the river you're guaranteed to make the final table," Saakyants told the start-of-day chip leader.
