Bolotin Spikes Set; Doubles Through Singer!

Alex Bolotin opened the action with a raise from middle position to 35,000. David Singer was next to speak and flat called. The rest of the players folded and the two players took a flop.

The flop arrived {8-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{4-Diamonds} and Bolotin led out with a bet of 40,000. Singer asked Bolotin for a count of his remaining chips and thought for several minutes before announcing that he was all in. Before the words had left Singer's mouth, Bolotin announced a call and flipped over {8-Diamonds}{8-Spades} for top set. Singer showed {Q-Diamonds}{Q-Spades} for the overpair.

The turn brought the {3-Hearts} and river the {2-Hearts} and Bolotin doubles through Singer to 520,000 chips, leaving Singer with 340,000.
