Three Sets, But Only One Winner

Level 2 : 50/100, 0 ante

An opponent in the cutoff moved all in for 6,000, Samuel Yon called from the button and so did another opponent in late position. The flop came down {10-Diamonds}{q-Spades}{4-Diamonds}, the late position opponent checked to Yon who moved all in for his remaining 4,125, his opponent called and players turned over their hands.

The cutoff player showed {10-Spades}{10-Hearts} for a flopped set, the late position opponent tabled {q-Diamonds}{q-Hearts} for a higher set, and Yon showed {k-Hearts}{k-Spades} for a pair of kings.

The {2-Spades} on the turn was no help to anyone, the river, however, was the {k-Diamonds}, bringing yet another set to the table and improving Yon to the leader, eliminating one opponent and doubling through the other with his set of kings on the river.
