Lu Holding His Own at "Tough Table"
Level 12
: 1,500/3,000, 0 ante
2-7 Triple Draw
"Tough table," a player said looking around at his tablemates, including defending champion Ryan Leng, Player of the Year Robert Campbell, Brazilian star Yuri Dzivielevski, and Kyle Montgomery.
David Lu, who says he has never played 2-7 before, raised before the draw, then called when Leng re-raised to 4,500.
Both players checked until the third draw as each took one. Lu checked to the champ who threw out a bet of 3,000. Lu called.
"A pair of sixes," Leng said before Lu showed 
.
"That beats a pair of sixes," Leng added before giving up the pot to the newcomer on this table full of stars.
