Waki's Pocket Pair Hold to Knockout Opponent

Level 11 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Andrew Gonder moved all in from the small blind with 23,900 behind. He got a call from Yasuhiro Waki, the big blind, who covered him.

Andrew Gonder: {a-Spades}{j-Diamonds}
Yasuhiro Waki: {8-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}

Waki was ahead and no help would come for Gonder, as the board bricked out {4-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{3-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{k-Clubs}. Waki's eights had held, sending Gonder to the rail while Waki raked in the pot.
