Stud Hi-Lo 8 or Better
Bradley Smith: XxXx/4♦A♠8♠9♦/Xx
Nghia Le: XxXx/3♣8♣5♦J♦/Xx
Smith completed, with Le upgrading his bring in to a call.
Fourth street saw Smith bet, with Le coming along.
Fifth through seventh streets all followed the same line - a check from Smith, a bet from Le, and a call from Smith.
"Two pair," said Le.
"Same," replied Smith, keeping his cards close to him.
Le turned over 8♥7♥5♥ for eights and fives. Smith showed Q♣8♦4♣ for eights and fours, giving the pot to a suddenly-rejuvenated Le.
