Sheils Hits Top Set to Win Big Pot
Level 28
: Blinds 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante
Brandon Sheils opened from under the gun and found a caller in Thomas Eychenne in the big blind.
Eychenne checked the 9♣5♠Q♦ flop, and Sheils continued for 250,000, which Eychenne called.
Both players checked the K♦ turn.
On the 8♦ river, Eychenne fired 750,000, and Sheils quickly called. Eychenne showed 5♥5♦ for a set, but Sheils tabled K♠K♣ for top set to scoop the pot, while Eychenne could only exhale, knowing it might have gone very differently.
