Durante vs. Meyvis

From late position, Felix Wright opens the pot to 3,200. Nathan Meyvis on the button and Roberto Durante in the small blind both make the call.

The flop comes down {10-Clubs} {9-Spades} {2-Spades} , and action is checked to the raiser. Wright makes a continuation bet of 5,700 before Meyvis raises all in for 10,100 total. In the small blind, Durante has the exact same amount of chips, and surprisingly he too puts in his last 10,100, causing Wright to duck out of the hand.

When the cards are turned over, Meyvis has {A-Spades} {A-Hearts} , but sees that he ran into a set when Durante shows {9-Diamonds} {9-Clubs} . The turn and river are {3-Spades} , {3-Diamonds} , and Meyvis is out. Durante, meanwhile, is back up to 40,000.
