Negreanu's Eight Good

Level 2
Limit Hold'em
Mike Gorodinsky raised preflop under the gun. John Ma called from the hijack, as did Daniel Negreanu from the big blind.
The flop came A?8?4?. Negreanu checked to Gorodinsky, who bet. Ma folded, with Negreanu coming along.
Both players checked the 4? turn and 2? river. "Eight," said Negreanu, turning over 9?8?. Gorodinsky mucked his cards, and Negreanu pulled in the pot.
