Souza Doubles Through Bansal Set Over Set

Level 27 : 20,000/40,000, 5,000 ante

There were about 450,000 chips already in the pot and the board read {10-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds}{5-Diamonds} when we got to the table. Michael Souza bet 200,000 from the big blind, Raghav Bansal raised from the cutoff to what looked like 625,000, Souza quickly moved all-in, and Bansal called with a covering stack.

Michael Souza: {8-Hearts}{8-Clubs}
Raghav Bansal: {5-Spades}{5-Hearts}

Both players had flopped sets but Souza had the best of it by miles and Bansal needed a lot of help to win the pot. The {3-Hearts} turn and {7-Clubs} river changed nothing and Souza took the pot for a massive double-up.
