Crazy Eights!

Scott Clements
Scott Clements
Scott Clements, from the button, bet 5,000 after his opponent checked a flop of {A-Spades} {8-Hearts} {6-Clubs}. The two saw the turn come {K-Clubs} before the other player took the initiative and bet 5,000. Clements announced he was all in, and was called before he could finish the phrase. Clements' opponent, holding a smaller chip stack and at risk, tabled {A-?} {6-?} and saw that he was behind the the three eights of Clements after Clements revealed he had two snowmen in the hole. The river was a meaningless {3-Hearts}. Clements shot up the leaderboard with his newly-acquired chips and now sits with 76,000.
