Set-Over-Set Double Up for Pieffet

Level 13 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

The flop was down {j-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}, and Julien Pieffet put his 152,000 stack at risk against Upeshka De Silva who was also happy risk a significant percentage of his stack.

De Silva had hit a set with {3-}{3-}, but Pieffet had a set of his own with {j-Hearts}{j-Spades}. The turn {7-Spades} and river {9-Diamonds} didn't change the situation for De Silva, and Pieffet secured a big double up.

"And I thought it was such a dream flop," joked De Silva as he passed a large number of chips to Pieffet.

Level 13 : 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante

Thomas Scholze opened for 5,500 and it was only called by Upeshka De Silva in the big blind.

The flop showed {4-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{a-Spades} and De Silva check-called the continuation bet for 4,500 of Scholze. A {2-Clubs} fell on the turn and brought no betting action.

The river fell a {5-Spades} and De Silva announced all in. Scholze quickly sent his hand into the muck and Desilva grabbed the pot.

The action started with Jaime Staples on the button who bet 5,500. Andres Korn in the big blind was interested and made the call.

The flop came {5-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{7-Spades} and Korn first checked before calling Staples's continuation bet for 4,500.

The turn brought the {10-Hearts} and Korn checked once more. Staples made a second barrel worth 17,000 and it was enough to win the pot without more resistance.
