Eight-Perfect For Baxter

Level 2 : 75/150, 25 ante

We arrived after the draw to find Ben Yu, Phil Galfond, and Billy Baxter all sitting with cards in front of them and roughly 3,000 already in the middle.

Yu checked and Galfond did the same, prompting Baxter to flick 2,500 into the middle. Yu went into the tank for a bit before finally deciding to let his hand go and suddenly it was Galfond's turn to think. Eventually, Galfond moved out a call and Baxter tossed an eight perfect on the table - {8-}{5-}{4-}{3-}{2-}. Galfond mucked his hand and Baxter picked up the pot. He's now sitting around 35,000 in chips.
