Ryan Sets Up Raskin

Ayman Sawaged opened for 6,500 from middle position and got two callers in Micah Raskin from a seat over and Michael Ryan on the button.

The flop came {J-Spades}{7-Hearts}{5-Spades}. Sawaged continued for 11,500, Raskin quickly made it 25,000 to go, then Ryan declared he was all in without missing a beat. Sawaged folded, and after thinking a bit Raskin called.

Raskin had {K-Clubs}{J-Spades} for top pair, but Ryan had a set with his {J-Hearts}{J-Diamonds}.

"Yes!" Ryan cried, pumping his fist and stepping away from the table momentarily. Then came the turn — the {2-Spades} — and a sudden sweat for Ryan as Raskin could still make a winning flush. But the river was the {A-Hearts}, and Ryan survived.
