I would guess KK with a lot of certainty. In fact, I'd lay 6:1 that it is KK. [img]/images/graemlins/smile.gif[/img]

Can you explain why?

I guess since I have no idea how these two players play, even though I read these forums all of the time, I wouldn't rule out A8/A8s or Q8[img]/images/graemlins/club.gif[/img]. I don't know what the *hint* the poster gave really means, but I read it as one of two things: either the 8 helped, or more likely that Hero should be extracting value from missed flush draws that might call 1 bet with 1 pair.

I'm learning, so please be nice.
