Set-Over-Set Sees Kim Fly

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

On a board of {9-Diamonds}{8-Spades}{5-Clubs}{J-Spades}, the small blind led out for roughly a half-pot-size bet of 45,000, and a player in early position called.

With the action on Brian Kim in the hijack, he raised to 109,000. The turn aggressor folded, but the player in the middle called as the river landed the {Q-Hearts}.

"Do you have me covered?" asked Kim's opponent.

Kim motioned his hands away from his chip stack so his opponent could see it.

Kim's opponent checked, then Kim knuckled behind and was shown his opponent's {8-Hearts}{8-Diamonds}. However, it would be Kim's {J-Diamonds}{J-Hearts} for a bigger set that would see him collect the pot.
