Massive Set-Under-Set Setback for Rhee

Level 8 : 400/800, 100 ante

While Junzhong Loo lost the remainder of his short stack over on table two, a far bigger pot was brewing on table one.

Konstantin Pogodin raised and picked up a call by Yo Seb Rhee in the cutoff before Peter Plater three-bet to 4,500 in the small blind. Both Pogodin and Rhee called and the flop fell {Q-Diamonds}{5-Hearts}{3-Clubs}. Plater continued for 5,200 and Pogodin called before Rhee raised it up to 17,000. Only Plater called that raise and the {7-Hearts} came on the turn.

Plater bet 17,000 and Rhee moved all in, which Plater confirmed with the dealer before calling immediately.

Peter Plater: {Q-Clubs}{Q-Hearts}
Yo Seb Rhee: {5-Spades}{5-Diamonds}

Plater only needed to avoid the case five and he did so thanks to the {7-Diamonds} river, scoring a massive double up for 43,275 and taking over the lead.
