The Eveslage Badeucey Show Continues

Livello 22

Badeucey

Chad Eveslage raised out of the small blind in the second hand of Badeucey which he had previously chosen and was called by Dutch Boyd in the big blind. Eveslage discarded four versus trey and bet, Boyd called.

On the second draw, Eveslage took one and Boyd two, the former bet and then called Boyd's raise. Both discarded one each on the final draw and Eveslage check-raised a bet of Boyd which caused chuckles by everyone at the table.

Boyd sigh-called and was shown the 8♠ / 7♥4♣3♦2♠ for a Seven-Dugi and eight-seven. Boyd had the 7♠ / 8♦4♠3♣2♥ for the worse Badugi and received only one quarter of the pot.

Razz

Zack Freeman: Ax6x / 7x7x3x4x / 9x
Dutch Boyd: Ax7x / 5xQx8xJx / 9x

Dutch Boyd bet his lead on fourth when Zack Freeman paired the open seven and he then checked fifth, after which Freeman bet. Boyd raised and Freeman was all-in. Sixth street was a bad one for Boyd as Freeman locked up the double to make seventh street meaningless.

Livello 22

Badeucey

Chad Eveslage raised from under the gun and Zack Freeman three-bet for Eveslage to call. Freeman discarded two versus one on the first draw and check-called a bet before the same drawing action led to the check-shove for 130,000 thereafter.

Freeman then patted the final draw and Eveslage drew one again.

Zack Freeman: 8♥6♦ / 7♣3♦2♥
Chad Eveslage: 8♠ / 5♥4♠2♣

Eveslage had outs to scoop but the 4♥ river ensured the split pot.

The game then switched to Razz as picked by Dutch Boyd.

Badeucey

Marco Johnson raised on the button and Chad Eveslage three-bet from the big blind. Johnson called and drew two as Eveslage drew one.

After the first draw, Eveslage bet and Johnson called as both players drew one. Eveslage bet again and stood pat as Johnson called and drew one. Eveslage bet once more after the final draw and Johnson tossed in a reluctant call.

"This one's gonna hurt," he said.

"I've got a nine," said Eveslage as he showed 9♠8♣7♦4♣3♥ to win the pot as Johnson mucked to be left with crumbs.

The next hand, Dustin Dirksen raised and Johnson three-bet jammed his remaining chips. Eveslage and Dirksen both called and drew two as Johnson drew one.

Dirksen and Eveslage both checked and drew two after the first draw and Johnson again drew one. Both players checked again after the second draw and Eveslage drew two as his opponents drew one.

Eveslage check-folded after a bet from Dirksen on the final draw who showed 7♦6♠4♣3♥2♠ for a seven-six low and a seven badugi to beat out Johnson's A♦9♣7♥3♠ as he hit an ace on the final draw.

"Stupid badeucey hands," Johnson murmured as he was eliminated in sixth place.

Big O

Dutch Boyd raised to 60,000 and Marco Johnson called out of the big blind. On a 9♣8♦8♥ flop, Johnson check-called for 50,000 and then check-folded the A♦ turn when Boyd bet 250,000.

One hand later, Chad Eveslage opened to 75,000 from under the gun and table short stack Zack Freeman defended his big blind. Following a Q♣10♠8♦ flop, Freeman checked and Eveslage bet the pot for 180,000 to take it down. Freeman grinned and joked, claiming he never had less than that on a flop as he flashed a Kx5x4x2x combo.

Eveslage was next to pick and selected his favorite variant - Badeucey.

@gordoMG @chadeveslage Phil Ivey was never as dominant at one game as Chad is at baduecy.
