"Spice Girl's" Set Over Set Scoops the Pot

Level 2 : 25/50, 0 ante

We caught the action with a board reading {6-}{5-}{7-}{2-}{A-} two players all-in. Meg McCormick, who informed me that her name was indeed spelled just like the spice company, flipped up her {6-Hearts}{6-Spades} for a flopped set.

This was enough to dispatch her opponent, who had turned a lower set with {2-}{2-} and found himself on the wrong end of this set-over-set confrontation.

McCormick now sits with just over 7,400 chips and is in a strong position at her table.
