Tong Takes with a Ten
Limit 2-7 Triple Draw
Marco Johnson had just picked up a small double with a scooped pot in stud hi-lo when he was involved in another pot.
Brian Rast raised from under the gun and Johnson called from the small blind before Kristopher Tong came along from the big blind. All three players took two cards on their first draw.
The three players continued in unison with a check and each of them took two cards again. Johnson checked and Tong bet. Rast called and Johnson came along for the third draw as well.
Johnson took one and Tong stood pat before Rast asked for two. All three players checked.
"I'm going to say ten," Rast said to Tong.
Tong nodded and tabled 10x9x6x5x2x to take the pot while Johnson and Rast pitched their losing hands without showing.
