Kelly Minkin

Kelly Minkin was involved in a hand in which she was in the big blind and the board read {a-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{7-Spades}.

She checked to her only other opponent and he bet 18,000 in the pot of already 65,000 and she quickly called.

The turn was {10-Clubs} and she once again checked and her opponent bet 33,000. Minkin went all-in for 400,000 putting her opponent all-in for his remaining 145,000, but he quickly mucked.

Minkin scooped in the pot, and she now sits with about 650,000 in chips.

Reeves With Crazy Eights

Level 18 : 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante

Thomas Reeves shoved all-in for his tournament life over an early position open for about 125,000 and the player under the gun called, covering him.

Reeves shouted "Crazy Eights!" right before flipping his hand over.

Thomas Reeves: {8-Clubs}{8-Spades}
Under The Gun: {a-Spades}{q-Diamonds}

The board ran out {8-Hearts}{k-Diamonds}{k-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{4-Hearts} and Reeves secured the double up with a full house, eights over kings. The very next hand Reeves folded {8-Hearts}{8-Spades} face up when a player shoved all-in covering him.
