Yesterday at Full Tilt Poker tables, FTP pro Patrik Antonius got himself into an embarassing situation: he lost a pot to David Oppenheim in 2-7 Triple Draw. He didn't really understand why he lost. It turns out, Mr. Antonius is not fully aware of the game's rules.

David Oppenheim and Patrik Antonius

His opponent, David Oppenheim won the $18,747 pot with an A-5-4-3-2 hand (Antonius held 2-2-5-4-3) and Antonius was curious to see himself losing the pot:

Patrik Antonius: ??????????????????
Patrik Antonius: Oppey
Patrik Antonius: did you see what happened?
David Oppenheim: yeah
David Oppenheim: no
David Oppenheim: lol
Patrik Antonius: you won with the straight
David Oppenheim: you think i had a straight
David Oppenheim: hahahhahahhahahahhaha
Patrik Antonius: wow
David Oppenheim: you are a very bad player
Patrik Antonius: this is how good i am
David Oppenheim: you should play smaller limits
David Oppenheim: too high for you if you think thats a straight

If you are not familiar with 2-7, Aces always count as a high card, and do not contribute to a straight in such a hand Oppenheim had. However good player Patrik Antonius is, he does definitely need some learning about 2-7 Triple Draw. Of course it's not that polite of Oppenheim to bash his opponent, the Finnish player might not want to contribute his money to him anymore if he behaves like that.
