Eights Enough for Sitbon to Scoop

Level 19
Julien Sitbon
Julien Sitbon

Stud Hi-Lo

Action picked up on fourth after Josh Arieh, Julien Sitbon, and Matthew Beinner all contributed one bet on third.

Josh Arieh: XxXx / A♥2♠3♦3♥ / Xx
Julien Sitbon: XxXx / 3♠A♠8♦2♣ / Xx
Matthew Beinner: XxXx / 8♥K♣ - folded on fourth street

It checked to Arieh on fourth, who bet, and only Sitbon called. Sitbon would then check-call another bet on fifth.

Arieh made open threes on sixth but elected to check-call. He check-called a final bet on seventh from Sitbon, who tabled J♥10♥8♠ in the hole, and his lone pair of eights was enough for the scoop as Arieh could not salvage half the pot.
