What a Flop!
Niveau 1
: Blinds 100/200, 200 ante
In one of the first hands of the day the 2019 $888 - No-Limit Hold'em Crazy Eights champion, Rick Alvarado called PokerNews over saying, "Hey PokerNews, you got to check out this flop of the day!"
The board read 
and there couldn't have been a more fitting flop to kick off the $777 Lucky 7's event. Justin Bassett, in the cutoff stayed on trend by betting 700 which Alvarado called.
On the 
turn Bassett fired out 1,200, Alvarado folded and Bassett took down the pot for an early start to building his stack.
