Birnbaum's Big Bounce

Level 9 : 300/600, 75 ante

Nancy Birnbaum open-shoved preflop and was called by just one opponent, and it was looking as though Birnbaum would be heading for the exits.

Birnbaum: {6-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}
Opponent: {10-Clubs}{10-Hearts}

The flop gave Birnbaum the set she needed with {k-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{6-Hearts}. The turn and river of {5-Spades}{5-Hearts} improved her hand to a full house and she secured a double up. Her opponent was left with just 300 chips and is looking elimination in the eye.
