Hillman Won't Go Down Without a Fight
Louis Hillman bet from the button and received calls from Michael Rodrigues from the small blind and Allen Kessler from the big blind. Hillman and Rodrigues each drew two while Kessler drew four.
"I've never done this before" Kessler said as he asked for four on the first draw.
"ICM is for poor people" Patrick Leonard joked from the seat right next to him.
Rodrigues and Kessler checked after the first draw, Hillman bet, and both of his opponents made the call. Hillman stood pat, Rodrigues drew one and Kessler drew two.
After the second draw Kessler and Rodrigues checked again. Hillman bet, Rodrigues called and Kessler folded. Hillman once again stood pat while Rodrigues drew one.
Both players checked with no draws remaining. Hillman showed 8x5x4x3x2x for eight perfect and took it down, once again adding to his stack when he was on the brink of elimination.
"How many double-ups is that?", Josh Damm asked from the next table over.
"That was a triple-up", Hillman replied as he scooped the pot.
