Set No Good for Raskin
Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Raskin check-called a bet of 150,000 from the big blind on a board reading 3♣4♦A♠. Holding 3♠3♥ he was in dreamland, until the 5♥ turn hit his opponent, cutoff player Roman Hrabec, holding J♥2♥
Raskin then led out for 700,000 with his set, and Hrabec simply smooth called with his straight. The 9♦ rolled in on the river, and Raskin barrelled again for half of his stack, putting out 2,000,000. Hrabec opted against raising, simply flatting, and showing his opponent the bad news.
