Kobbing Collects Amongst Confusion

We were just informed of an interesting hand on the table of Karsten Kobbing. The board was double-paired, with two kings and two nines on board and Kobbing betting at the pot. He found himself a caller and Kobbing tabled pocket eights, as his pair had been counterfeited by the bigger two pair on board. However remarkably his opponent has misread the board and found himself calling with only pocket fives!

The eight kicker of Kobbing played and he collected the pot! He's now up to 80,000 chips.
