Moorman Flops a Set to Eliminate his Opponent

Level 12 : 600/1,200, 1,200 ante

The player in middle position opened to 2,800. Chris Moorman, in the small blind, three-bet to 20,400. The original raiser snap-called putting at risk his last 16,000, and their cards were tabled:

Chris Moorman: {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds}
Opponent: {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs}

Moorman hit a pretty favorable flop of {9-Spades}{j-Clubs}{6-Clubs}. The {2-Diamonds} turn and {3-Diamonds} river completed the board and Moorman took down the pot sending his opponent to the rail.
