Nielsen Flops a Set
Level 22
: Blinds 40,000/80,000, 80,000 ante
Marius Gierse opened to 160,000 in early position with Q♦5♦ and Martin Nielsen just called in the small blind with 9♠9♦ which allowed Haitao Lei to come along in the big blind with J♠7♠.
The flop fell K♥9♣5♥ and the blinds checked to Gierse who continued with a bet of 150,000 as the chip leader. Nielsen check-raised to 550,000 with his set of nines which got a quick fold from Lei and Gierse followed suit with his bottom pair.
