Vieira Flops a Set, Holz Turns a Bigger Set
Level 18
: Blinds 50,000/125,000, 125,000 ante
Action folded to Joao Vieira in the hijack, and he raised all in for 400,000. It then folded to Fedor Holz on the button, who three-bet all in for 1,500,000. Once the blinds folded, it was the two players heads up with Vieira at risk.
Joao Vieira: 3♥3♣ 
Fedor Holz: 9♠9♣
Holz had the dominate position with the bigger pocket pair, but that didn't last long on the 8♠2♣3♦ flop to give Vieira a set. However, the 9♥ on the turn flipped the roles again, as Holz made a bigger set. The 4♠ on the river brought no help for Vieira, as he was eliminated.
