McKeehen Gets Set-Over-Set

Level 8 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Joe McKeehen
Joe McKeehen

Joe McKeehen opened to 2,300 in the cutoff and John Jensen flat-called in the small blind, while the big blind also came along.

The action checked to McKeehen on the flop of {2-Spades}{a-Diamonds}{8-Clubs} and he bet 2,000. Only Jensen called. Jensen checked again on the {7-Spades} turn and McKeehen sized up to 7,000. Jensen check-jammed a stack of 19,000 and McKeehen snap-called.

John Jensen: {a-Hearts}{a-Spades}
Joe McKeehen: {7-Hearts}{7-Diamonds}

It was a brutal cooler for the 2015 Main Event champ as his set of sevens was far behind Jensen's set of aces. The {2-Hearts} river improved both players to full houses and Jensen secured the double-up.

"You see this shit, Phil?" McKeehen moaned to table mate Phil Hui.
