Young's Aces Get It Done

Level 8 : 200/400, 50 ante

We didn't catch the exact betting action, but we know that Justin Young raised it up in early position. His opponent two spots over three bet it to 1,800, and another player shoved all in for his last 13,000. Action got back around to Young, and he didn't take too long to shove all in. The original three better regrettably folded, and the players tabled their cards.

Young: {a-Clubs}{a-Hearts}
Opponent: {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}

Young was in great shape for the knockout, and to show off, he flopped a set, as it came down {3-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}. No miracles came for his opponent, as the board completed {10-Hearts} and {4-Diamonds}.
