Volpe Loses With Set Over Set
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 flop and it'd be three-way to the 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: - set of eights
Alekberovas: - set of jacks
The completed the board and Volpe shipped the chips to Alekberovas, he's dropped to 76,000 as a result, Alekberovas doubled to 132,000.
