Wasserson found a deuce on fourth and bet.

"You don't have to call," said Wasserson. But Chait did call.

On fifth, Wasserson bet again and Chait went nowhere, making the call.

On sixth street, Chait hit an eight of his own and bet, Wasserson made the fold.

Chait showed for his hole cards.

"If you would have told me you had a good hand before I called, I would have folded. But you didn't, I already called," joked Wasserson.
