A Chop? In 2-7 Triple Draw?
Level 17
: Limits 5,000/10,000, 0 ante
Blind on blind Matthew Woodward raised and Frank Kassela called.
Both players drew two. Woodward bet and called a raise from Kassela. Woodward drew one, with Kassela standing pat. Woodward check-called a bet and the draws repeated.
Woodward then bet out and Kassela called. Woodward turned over 9x8x6x5x4x with Kassela studying his opponent's cards intently.
"Chop it up," said Kassela, tabling 9x8x6x5x4x. "What a value bet you sick son of a bitch. I knew I couldn't beat a nine, but I knew there was a chance I could chop!"
