Odeen Hits a Magic Four
2-7 Triple Draw
Steven Houghland raised from the cutoff and Jerry Odeen defended from the big blind. Both players drew two.
After the first draw Odeen checked and Houghland bet.
"You look like someone who's about to draw two" Odeen told his opponent before making the call. Odeen drew one while Houghland did indeed draw two.
After the second draw Odeen bet, putting himself all in and Houghland made the call to put Odeen at risk. Houghland stood pat while Odeen drew one.
Jerry Odeen: 7x6x5x2x
Steven Houghland: 8x6x5x3x2x
Odeen was drawing thin against Houghland, who had the seventh-best possible hand, meaning only a three or a four would prevent Odeen from being eliminated. Odeen peeled 4x for his final card to make the fourth-best possible hand and secured a full double up.
"That was magic" Dainius Antanaitis, who was seated at the same table, commented as Odeen scooped the pot.
