Dashtaei Flops a Set and Sends Holmes Home
Level 12
: Blinds 2,000/4,000, 4,000 ante
Michael Holmes raised to 8,000, and was called by a player in the hijack, and the small blind Hassan Dashtaei.
After the flop came 6♥2♣3♦ Dashtaei checked to Holmes, who bet out 11,000. The player in the hijack called, before Dashtaei raised all in for his stack of 95,000. Holmes then called for his stack of 87,500, and the hijack quickly folded.
Michael Holmes: 10♠10♦ 
Hassan Dashtaei: 6♦6♣
Holmes had the over pair but was crushed by the set of Dashtaei. The 5♥ on the turn gave Holmes some extra chop outs, but the 3♣ on the river gave Dashtaei a full house, sixes full of threes to take the sizable pot and eliminate Holmes.
