Sitbon Doubles with Flopped Set
Edward Pak opened to 1,800 in middle position and both Julien Sitbon and Cesar Del Pino called. Anthony Scarborough on the button three-bet to 7,000 which got a four-bet of 21,000 from Pak. Sitbon smiled and shoved all-in for 17,000 making Del Pino fold. Scarborough announced, "I fold," still hanging on to his cards. The cards were tabled for a showdown.
Julien Sitbon: K♠K♥ 
Edward Pak: Q♣Q♠
Scarborough finally let go of his hand when the cards were shown stating that he had ace-king. The flop dropped A♦3♠K♣ giving Sitbon a set and a potential boost in his stack.
The Q♥ turn was flipped over but it still didn't beat Sitbon's set. The dealer completed the board with a J♠ with no consequence. Sitbon scooped the pot for a double up as Pak and Scarborough chatted of a what-if-he-called situation.
