Morrison Wins With a Pair of Eights

With around 9,000 in the pot and a board reading {8-Diamonds}{K-Diamonds}{7-Hearts}{J-Hearts}, a player in middle position bet 2,525 and Kirk Morrison made the call from the cutoff. Both players ended up checking the {6-Hearts} river, and the middle-position player simply said, "I have nothing."

Morrison then rolled over {Q-Hearts}{8-Spades} for a pair of eights and the win.
