Sets Galore for Pivonia
Level 3
: Blinds 200/400, 400 ante
Around 14,000 was in the middle already, with the board reading J♥9♠3♥5♥, in a hand between Sean McDiarmid in middle position and Michael Pivonia on the button
McDiarmid check-called versus a bet of 7,500 from Pivonia.
The 6♦ river completed the board, and McDiarmid checked once more. Pivonia quickly fired out a bet of 12,000, and after some deliberation McDiarmid called.
Pivonia showed 6♠6♣ for the rivered set of sixes, his second set of the day, causing McDiarmid to exclaim "Wow, Jesus Christ, what a river", while he mucked.
