Nia Spikes a Set
Level 19
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Michael Nia opened from under the gun to 32,000 with 2♠2♣ and Adam Weinraub called with Q♠9♠ in the cutoff. Faraz Jaka defended his big blind with A♠6♦ and the J♣Q♣8♦ was fanned out.
Jaka checked to Nia, who announced a bet of 32,000. Weinraub called while Jaka got out of the way.
Nia then checked after hitting a set on the 2♥ turn and Weinraub checked behind.
The 9♦ river saw Nia bet 25,000, with Weinraub tossing in the call after making two pair. Nia raked in the pot, adding once again to his sizeable chip lead.
