A Very Slow Set Over Set Scenario

Level 6 : 200/400, 50 ante

Denis Vladimirov opened to 1,000 in early position, [Removed:2] called on his left, Dario Minieri called in the cutoff, and Hiren Patel called out of the small blind. All four players checked when the flop fell {q-Spades}{9-Hearts}{5-Spades}, and the turn brought the {2-Hearts}.

Patel checked, Vladimirov fired 2,200, and the action folded back to Patel, who check-raised to 8,400.

"How much?" Vladimirov instantly asked the dealer.

Once he learned the amount, the Russian moved all in for 19,850. Patel instantly called, and turned over {2-Clubs}{2-Diamonds}. Vladimirov stood up, looked at Patel's hand, let out a long sigh, and then turned over {9-Diamonds}{9-Spades} for a higher set.

The {10-Hearts} completed the board, and the Russian doubled. Patel dropped down to around 24,000 chips.
