All In All In

Peter raised to 100,000 and Andrew reraised to 330,000. After a long think Peter raised again to 775,000 total. From the profile angle I have, Andrew took two big gulps and moved all in and the call was made.

Showdown
Andrew -- {A-Diamonds}

{A-Diamonds}

{Q-Diamonds}

Peter --

{6-Hearts}

{6-Clubs}

The board ran {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{8-Clubs}

{9-Hearts}

{6-Spades}

{2-Clubs}

.

Andrew took the lead on the flop sending his supporters wild; but Peter then hit a set, sending his supporters even more wild mobbing their man.

We thought it was over but a count left Andrew with around 250,000.
