An Interesting Hand

[La Brujita]

Just curious if you think this is as unlikely as I thought it was. Party nl $50, five see the flop. Flop comes 887, two players all in (neither in the blinds). Both show down 8-7 offsuit.

I thought it was funny for a variety of reasons.

That's such a funny situation
And even funnier b/c I saw a hilarious 87o situation yesterday at a $25NL tourney at the real casino.
Blinds are getting tough and with only one EP caller, it continued to fold around preflop to our LP hero, who decides to steal (?) and raises all in with 87o.
cutoff calls with AKs,
BB hasn't gotten a hand all night so he calls with QQ, and
EP calls with KK, he later admitted he was hoping for the limp-reraise.

Flop comes A T 3, turns a 9, and the river 6 completes the runner runner straight for our third 87 hero in this thread.
BB and EP were knocked out of the tourney.

Not that uncommon, once every 8648 flops. /images/graemlins/cool.gif

Yeah but two players playing a trash hand like that and flopping the boat?

Its not like the flop was JJT.
