Michaelis On a Roll

Nikolai Sears open-shoved and Steven Michaelis called right behind him. The blinds released and the hands were tabled.

Sears: {A-Hearts} {J-Hearts}
Michaelis: {9-Clubs} {9-Spades}

The board ran {J-Diamonds} {6-Spades} {3-Clubs} {Q-Hearts} {9-Hearts} and after tapping the table on the flop Michaelis was apologetic when he hit his set on the river.
