"Quads With the Nut Low Draw"
Level 28
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Matthew Bretzfield opened to 260,000 on the button before Matthew Beinner announced pot and three-bet to 830,000 from the big blind.
Bretzfield took some time before counting out a call, and the dealer fanned out the 6?8?8? flop. Beinner bet enough to put his opponent all in, and Bretzfield snap-called.
"Quads with the nut low draw!" exclaimed Bretzfield, as both hands were tabled.
Matthew Bretzfield: A?J?8?8?2? 
Matthew Beinner: A?K?Q?Q?2?
Bretzfield had indeed flopped quad eights, asking the dealer to keep the remaining cards high. The K? turn changed nothing, but the 3? river brought a low on board. Bretzfield claimed the high pot, while both players shared the nut low.
