2-7 Triple Draw
The field was pretty much vacated into the break already but one table was still running. Two bets had gone in after the second draw between Chino Rheem in the small blind, Roy Thung in the big blind and Saya Ono on the button.
On the final draw, Rheem was in the tank and then discarded one as did Thung. Once Ono also drew one, Rheem let out a loud "fuck" that everybody nearby heard. He checked and Thung bet, only Ono called as Rheem then flashed he had received an ace.
Ono ended up winning the pot with a 9x7x6x3x2x. Rheem confirmed that he had broken an eight and would have won the pot.
