The turn was another eight - the - and Israelashvili led out. Chiovari called. The completed the board, and Israelashvili moved all in for 11,000, which is less than a big bet. Chiovari quickly called, and Israelashvili tabled for quad eights.
Chiovari showed two black kings, and Israelashvili raked in the pot.
When we arrived at Table 447, Phil Hellmuth, Brian Hastings and David Bakes Baker were all taking to a flop in a raised pot. Hastings and Baker checked and Hellmuth flicked out a bet. Only Hastings called as a hit the turn. Again Hastings check-called a bet from Hellmuth, the same as he did on the river.

Brian Hastings hasn't been doing great lately and we were there to catch him lose a bunch of his chips to Scott Clements. The hand in question was Razz and by the time we got there, Clements was showing a ninety-seven and Hastings was mucking his hand to send the handy pot to Clements, whose stack is now prospering.
