Eight for the Eights
Level 39
: Blinds 1,000,000/1,500,000, 1,500,000 ante
Aaron Massey opened to 3,000,000 from early position holding K♦Q♣, and his only customer was Kevin Eyster, who flatted the bet from the cutoff with 8♠8♦.
Massey then continued for 1,700,000 on the 4♠5♣A♣ flop, which was called by Eyster, and the two both saw the 9♣ turn. Here, Massey slowed down with a check, and Eyster took the initiative with a bet of 8,000,000. It brought a quick fold from Massey.
