Todd Witteles Bubbles Event #24: $1,500 Limit Holdem

Level 13 : 2,000/4,000, 0 ante

Todd Witteles got his final big bet in with pocket eights against Ray Henson and Otto Richard.

Witteles watched with his hand face down as Henson and Richard played out the hand for the side pot.

The flop came {a-Clubs}{5-Spades}{2-Spades} and both players checked. The turn was the {6-Clubs} and Henson bet. Richard called.

The river was the {10-Clubs} and Henson bet again. Richard called and then all three players had to wait until the rest of the action in the room was completed. After that, Henson turned over {a-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds} for a pair of aces and Richard had only a pair of tens. Witteles turned over his {8-}{8-} and headed to the rail as the stone bubble.
