Pocket Eights Good for Mattsson
Level 16
: Blinds 2,000/5,000, 5,000 ante
Three players created a pot of about 100,000, and the 7?5?2?5? turn was already on the felt. The action was checked to Simon Mattsson who fired a bet of 25,000, and only Alexandre Reard made the call.
The 9? landed on the river, and both players tapped the table. Reard rolled over 6?6? before seeing it was no good as Mattsson tabled 8?8?.
