What I like about str draw cards being part of your outs is they’re often hard to see when the primary draw (a flush for example), doesn’t hit.

From the Bodog blog:

Looks like “GoldenHammer” is holding onto the top spot on the Leader Board right now, followed by the second event’s winner. “kurokitty,” who had to play part of her tournament in the car using a cell phone as a modem.
