Volpe Loses With Set Over Set

Level 11 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

An absolute cooler of a hand to tell you about between Paul Volpe and Anaras Alekberovas which also involved Bertrand 'ElkY' Grospellier. It was the Frenchman who got the action started, raising to 2,500 under-the-gun, next to act Alekberovas made it 6,300 to go, Volpe called from the hijack and when it got back to him ElkY made the call.

So three-way to a {j-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{k-Diamonds} flop and it'd be three-way to the {6-Spades} turn as Alekberovas bet 6,600 on the flop and both players called. On the turn ElkY checked, Alekberovas bet 17,400, Volpe raised it to 40,000, ElkY folded, Alekberovas moved all-in for a total of 41,400 and Volpe called the extra.

Volpe: {8-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} - set of eights
Alekberovas: {J-Clubs}{J-Hearts} - set of jacks

The {7-Clubs} completed the board and Volpe shipped the chips to Alekberovas, he's dropped to 76,000 as a result, Alekberovas doubled to 132,000.
