Strang Flops a Set to Finish Off Higgs

Level 15 : 1,500/3,000, 500 ante

Sam Higgs was forced all in from the big blind for 1,500, all he had left. Errolyn Strang opened to 7,500 from under the gun. Action folded to the small blind who called.

"I'll check in the dark," the small blind player announced.

"I'll check in the dark too," Higgs said, jokingly.

The flop was {10-Clubs}{4-Spades}{6-Diamonds} and Strang checked behind to see the {3-Spades} on the turn. There, the small blind led out for 6,000 before Strang made it 16,000. The small blind called and it was on to the river.

The river was the {Q-Diamonds} and the small blind checked. Strang made it 32,000 and the small blind quickly folded. Higgs showed down his {K-Clubs}{7-Clubs} but it was no good as Strang flopped a set holding {4-Diamonds}{4-Hearts} to send him to the rail.
