Chen Heating Up with Eights

Level 20
: Limits 12,000/24,000, 0 ante
George Chen raised from middle position and Eddie Kifarkis defended in the big blind.
The flop came J?Q?K? and Kifarkis check-called. The 7? turn and 3? river both went check-check.
When Chen turned over 8?8?, the table let out a good chuckle, as Chen had won the previous pot with the same exact hand, including the suits. Kifarkis folded and Chen dragged in the small pot.
