Bouares Set Over Sets Carpentier-Perrault Again
It's a feat in itself to flop a set when playing no-limit hold'em and players marvel at it when they do so. It's another thing to be fortunate enough to have another player make a smaller set at the same time in order to get paid off. For it to happen twice in a day, to the same person, that's just crazy.
Earlier today, Marc-Olivier Carpentier-Perrault flopped a set of tens and got all of the chips in the middle only to have Farid Bouares turn a set of aces. Just a couple of hours later, the two were at it again.
On a flop of 
, the action checked to Carpentier-Perrault who bet 4,000 into a pot of around 11,000. David "ODB" Baker called from the big blind and Bouares check-raised to 10,000. Carpentier-Perrault shipped all in and Baker got out of the way, while Bouares called off his stack of 38,600.

on the river locked up the win for Bouares who doubled up through Carpentier-Perrault again. After the hand, Carpentier-Perrault was left with just 3,400 chips.
