Vedire Spikes an Eight to Triple Up
Level 21
: 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Yashwamth Vedire moved all in for 560,000 from under the gun. It folded to Albert Chan who flat-called. The new player at the table was in the big blind and re-raised all in for 925,000.
Chan took his time counting out the extra chips needed before calling.
Yashwamth Vedire: 
Albert Chan: 
Big Blind: 
"I have aces," said the big blind. The flop was 
with the 
coming on the turn. However, the river 
improved Vedire to a set of eights, with the big blind scooping the smaller side pot to remain alive.
