Chainsaw Firing Things Up Early

On a flop of {A-Hearts} {8-Clubs} {2-Spades}, Rep Porter checked, the next player bet 750, and then Allen Kessler called on the button. Porter folded, leaving the other two heads up to the turn.

The turn brought the {3-Spades} and action checked to Kessler. He fired 1,500 and was called.

The river was the {9-Hearts} and a bet of 2,000 was laid out in front of Kessler by his opponent. Kessler made the call and tabled a set of eights with the {8-Hearts} {8-Diamonds}. His opponent held {A-Spades} {9-Spades}.
