Pocket Eights for the Win
Level 17
: Blinds 3,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Amir Lehavot raised to 8,000 from the button and the big blind, Joshua Heinzl, called. On a flop of 2♣4♥7♥ Heinzl checked and Lehavot made a bet of 15,000. Heinzl looked him up.
Two broadway cards showed up on the turn J♠ and the river Q♦ which both players pondered over for a while but then both of them checked.
Heinzl turned over A♥4♦ and Lehavot turned over 8♦8♥ for the winning hand and a small victory.
