Heath Flops a Set to Double Up

Level 5 : Blinds 300/600, 600 ante

After a couple of preflop raises Ben Heath managed to get all of his 41,600 chips in the middle. He was called by the cutoff and the cards were tabled.

Ben Heath: {q-Spades}{q-Clubs}
Opponent: {a-Hearts}{k-Spades}

It was a classic flip and the flop of {q-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{6-Diamonds} gave Heath a huge lead with a set of queens. It also sent the table into a frenzy as Matthew Wantman noted that he folded pocket sixes and the big blind folded pocket nines.

"Nine," Cliff Josephy was cheering for but the {3-Clubs}, {5-Clubs} runout was clean for Heath as he doubled up.
