Trip Eights for Eslami

Stud-8

Ali Eslami completed with the {8-Clubs} and found only one caller, Scott Seiver and his {A-Spades}. Both players proceeded to check the turn before Seiver led out on fifth. Eslami not only called that bet, but also called a bet on sixth.

Seiver: {7-Spades}{3-Spades} / {A-Spades}{J-Spades}{2-Clubs}{A-Hearts} / {x-}
Eslami: {8-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Diamonds} / {8-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}{3-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}

Seiver ended up check-calling a bet, but lamented it when seeing Eslami's trip eights. "I had a flush and low draw," Seiver said aloud.
