Bassam Only Plays Eights!

Kirk Brown

Level 28 : Blinds 75,000/125,000, 125,000 ante

After some preflop back-and-forth, all the chips between Mohammed Bassam ad Ryan Freeman got into the middle, with Bassam at risk.

Mohammed Bassam: 8♣8♥ All in
Ryan Freeman: 6♠6♣

"Eights again?!" several people laughed as Bassam has doubled every time with eights, and was in a good spot to do so again.

Sure enough, he even flopped ANOTHER set when the board ran out 8♦A♣K♣K♥K♦ to give him the bigger full house for the double.
