Set Over Set

Nicolas Fierro opened to 1,000, a player in middle position called, and Darren Elias three-bet to 3,125 on the button. Fierro and the third player called, and the flop fell {8-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{6-Spades}. Fierro led for 12,025, the player in middle position folded, and Elias moved all in for 30,025. Fierro snap-called.

Showdown
Fierro: {5-Hearts}{5-Spades}
Elias: {6-Hearts}{6-Diamonds}

Elias was well ahead, but the {7-Hearts} on the turn gave Fierro four outs to chop. The {8-Clubs} on the river paired the board though, and Elias doubled to 66,000 chips.
