Bifarella Busts After Running Set into Set
Level 15
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Teun Mulder opened to 9,000 from middle position and was called by Jose Gonzalez in the cutoff. Samuel Bifarella squeezed to 102,000 from the small blind, leaving himself just 4,000 behind, which got a call from Mulder and a fold from Gonzalez.
Gonzalez checked to Mulder, who bet enough to put Bifarella all in. Bifarella called and hands were revealed.
Samuel Bifarella: 9♥9♦
Teun Mulder: A♣A♥
The A♦Q♦9♠ flop gave both players a set and left Bifarella drawing to quads or a runner-runner flush.
It wasn't meant to be, however, as the 5♠ turn and 8♦ river bricked out for Bifarella and he was sent to the payout desk.
