Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 12 : Limits 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

Nathaniel Katzoff: K♠10♦7♣/9♣Q♠J♣7♦
Adam Friedman: XxXxXx/10♥5♠Q♦7♠
David Lieberman: XxXxXx/4♦A♠6♥7♥

Adam Friedman completed David Lieberman's bring-in and was called by Nathaniel Katzoff. Lieberman defended his bring-in as well.

Lieberman picked up an ace on fourth and led out with a bet which was called by both opponents. He bet again on fifth street and got raised by Friedman. the raise didn't shed Katzoff and Lieberman called as well.

Sixth street saw Lieberman slow down, but then he and Katzoff called a bet by Friedman.

On seventh street, Liberman checked, Friedman checked, and Katzoff now bet, prompting Friedman to pound the table in frustration.

After some thought, Lieberman made the call, and Friedman did as well, begrudgingly tossing in his calling chips.

Katzoff showed a king-high straight for the winner, with Friedman claiming he had aces up.

The defending champion was left with just 6,000 chips which would evaporate shortly after, meaning a new champion will be crowned on Wednesday.

Share on Twitter Share on Facebook

Livello 12 : Limits 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante

The 2023 World Series of Poker (WSOP) is getting ready to debut a brand new event!

Tomorrow, Wednesday, June 7 at 2 p.m., Event 20: $1,500 Badugi will get underway at 2 p.m. on Wednesday, June 7, but if you don't know how to play, fear not as we've put together this primer to get you up to speed and ready to compete.

Badugi is a four-card triple draw lowball poker variant that isn’t as well-known as other games, but those who learn and play it often characterize it as a fun alternative poker game filled with action.

A lot of players enjoy Badugi because it has a fairly simple objective and, because the format and goal differ from many other variants, there are different strategies employed.

Although the exact origin of the game is unknown, many believe it originated in South Korea in the latter half of the 20th century, while others claim it was popularized in Canada in the 1980s where it was called “Off Suit Lowball”.

The name allegedly comes from the Korean word baduk or badug which refers to a black and white pattern, with badugi a common name for a black and white spotted dog. The board game Go was called baduk in Korean.
