Pather Wins Huge Pot Against Tate

Level 4
: Blinds 300/500, 500 ante
Toran Tate had raised to 3,300 and earned a caller in Wouter Van Der Merwe as well as Nic Ioannoy. Kumi Pather then squeezed to 15,000 and Tate called, as did Ioannoy.
The trio checked the 8?3?2? flop to the A? turn and Tate now bet 25,000. Ioannoy folded but Pather pushed all-in. After using one time bank, Tate asked for a count and the all-in was for another 40,800 on top. Another two time banks later, Tate called.
Kumi Pather: A?K?
Toran Tate: A?J?
The river was the insignificant 10? and Pather doubled to a massive stack.
"I would have flopped a set of eights," Ashley Hira mentioned.
