Virlanuta Wins Pot With Higher Set
Niveau 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Marian Virlanuta had already moved all in with a short stack on the flop and had two callers as action went to the turn on a board of Q♠3♥2♥8♠.
Dauren Zhaparov checked and Aleksandr Lakhov bet 50,000. Zhaparov check-raised all in for not much more and Lakhov flicked in a chip to call.
Lakhov had 2♣2♦ for a set of deuces, Virlanuta had 8♣8♦ for a set of eights and Zhaparov mucked his hand.
The river came the 5♥ and Virlanuta won the pot to triple up, bringing his chip count back above starting stack. Lakhov won the side pot, while Zhaparov was eliminated.
