Thanks to Quads, El-Said Starts Recovery


With the rare flop of 8 8 8 on the board and a big pot of 5,000, Ayman El-Said shoved his final 2,200 and got two callers.

El-Said quickly shows them the bad news and the unbeatable 8 5 beating another player’s A Q and Tran’s mucked hands.

El-Said recovers from a short stack and jumps to about a dozen thousand in chips.
