Sarwer's Set Of Sixes Swamp Payan

Level 19 : 5,000/10,000, 0 ante

After the flop came {7-Diamonds}{8-Clubs}{3-Spades}, Jeff Sarwer and Elie Payan checked the action, along with two other players in the hand. The pot contained 40,000 after the four preflop limp-ins and when the turn came {6-Diamonds} Sarwer slid 21,000 into the middle.

Payan made the call and both players checked the {j-Hearts} on the river. Sarwer looked up and said "set of sixes any good?" and Payan mucked his hand to confirm that they were.

With ten players remaining in the tournament and the prized final table one elimination away, none of the competitors want to make any foolish mistakes and the play has slowed down significantly.
