Moorman Loses With Snowmen Despite Flopping a Set

Level 9 : 400/800, 100 ante

888poker Ambassador Chris "888Moorman" Moorman just rebought for a third time after three-betting all in with pocket eights. His opponent called with pocket queens.

Moorman flopped a set, however, so did his opponent on the {q-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} flop. Moorman was drawing dead on the {q-Diamonds} turn as his opponent hit quads. The inconsequential {9-Diamonds} completed the board on the river.
