Haidar Flops a Set to Double
Level 6
: Blinds 800/1,500, 1,500 ante
Safi Haidar three-bet shoved his 35,000 into the middle preflop over an Emmanoui Fountoulakis open. Fountoulakis called to try and send Haidar to the rail.
Safi Haidar: 8♠8♥ 
Emmanoui Fountoulakis: 10♠10♦
After realizing he was dominated and likely to be exiting the tournament, Haidar stood up from his chair. However, he was quick to sit back down when the flop came out 9♠3♠8♦ to give him a set. The rest of the board ran out 9♣6♦ and Haidar doubled up.
