Siegal Flops Surprise Set to Double

Jeff Siegal opened for 38,000 on the button and Tri Huynh moved all in from the big blind. Siegal snap-called and the dealer announced, “All in and a call” which was followed by the ESPN camera crew rushing over. Garry Gates, who was seated next to Siegal said, “800k flip” which is exactly what it was when we saw the players cards.

Siegal: {9-Spades}{9-Diamonds}
Huynh: {J-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}

Siegal was talking to David Sands to the other side of him and not even paying attention when he flopped a set on the {9-Hearts}{5-Hearts}{2-Spades} flop which several players pointed out to him. When a {7-} hit the turn though, Siegal finally tuned in and said that he didn’t like that card much. The river was a clean {4-Spades} for him though and he secured the double up for the 411,000 which Huynh shipped over.
