Chait Survives (For Now)
Level 13
A-5 Triple Draw
Craig Chait moved all in from under the gun before David "Bakes" Baker raised in middle position. Francois Scapula called in the big blind to generate three-way action heading to the first draw.
On the first draw Scapula took two, Chait three and Baker one after which Scapula check-called a bet from Baker.
Both Scapula and Chait drew one on the second draw while Baker opted to stand pat. Baker followed that up with a bet, which Scapula called.
Scapula took one more card on the final draw with his two opponents standing pat. Action then checked to showdown. Baker tabled 7x6x5x2xAx to scoop the sidepot from Scapula but Chait took the main holding 7x5x4x3x2x to keep his tournament alive.
