Khordbin Turns a Set and Gets Value From Sultanem
Level 1
: Blinds 200/500, 500 ante
Georges Sultanem made it 1,600 from middle position and Hadi Khordbin called on the button. The big blind then squeezed to 4,500, which both Sultanem and Khordbin called.
On the monotone flop of 5♠K♠A♠, all three players checked to see the 9♥ drop on the turn. The big blind checked, and Sultanem announced a bet of 8,000. Khordbin called, and the big blind folded.
An 8♦ completed the runout on the river and Sultanem quickly checked it over to his opponent, who thought for some time before he bet 20,000. Sultanem wasted no time in making the call.
Khordbin then revealed he had turned a set with 9♠9♣, and Sultanem analyzed the board for a second before he mucked.
