...so said Marwin Nassif after recently doubling up [Removed:505]. On a board showing {5-Clubs}

{5-Clubs}

{5-Diamonds}

{A-Spades}

, Nassif check-raised an 8,000 bet from Kinkade and moved all in. Kinkade insta-called and tabled {8-Hearts}

{8-Hearts}

{5-Spades}

for trips. Nassif turned over {A-?}

{A-?}

{3-?}

.

The turn and river were both inconsequential ( {3-Spades}

{3-Spades}

,

{6-Hearts}

) and Kinkade took down the pot and 120,000 in chips. Nassif had enough chips to absorb the hit, though he's now the short stack at the table with 47,000.
