Set Over Set Exit For Shlez

Level 14 : 1,000/2,000, 300 ante

Vadim Shlez just exited the tournament in extremely unfortunate circumstances after he lost set over set against Luke Graham.

Both Graham and Shlez were all in, and the board read {9-Clubs}{a-Clubs}{q-Hearts}{3-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}, and it was Graham who had the pot moved towards him.

Luke Graham: {q-Spades}{q-Diamonds}
Vadim Shlez: {9-}{9-}

Both players had flopped a set with their pocket pairs, but it was Graham who had the top set with pocket queens and had Shlez covered to win a huge pot and send his opponent to the payout desk in the process.
