Zurr Wins Set-Over-Set Hand

Level 2 : 200/300, 300 ante

Picking up the action on the flop of {5-Hearts}{j-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}, Shai Zurr bet 1,000 in early position and the next player to act called.

Sam Grafton check-raised to 3,000 in the small blind and Zurr called, while the other player raised to 8,000. Grafton quickly folded and Zurr called.

Zurr checked on the {6-Hearts} turn and called a bet of 6,000 from his opponent. Zurr check-called once more when facing a bet of 10,000 on the {2-Diamonds} river.

The opponent proudly tabled {3-}{3-} for a set but his pride faded when Zurr turned over {5-Spades}{5-} for a bigger set.
