Set Over Set Rockets Scarpelli to the Top

Level 2 : 200/300, 300 ante

Action was picked up on the turn with the board showing {j-Clubs}{6-Hearts}{5-Diamonds}{k-Spades} and Micah Scarpelli having more than 100,000 in the middle. A player on the button called all in for around 70,000.

The all-in player showed {j-Hearts}{j-Diamonds} for a flopped set, but Scarpelli had hit a two-outer on the turn with {k-Clubs}{k-Diamonds} to make a set of kings. The river came the {q-Hearts} and Scarpelli scored a knockout.

The eliminated player slowly rose from his seat before shaking Scarpelli's hand. "Nice hand," he said, mustering a smile despite the brutal knockout.

"You do the same thing with sixes or fives there? There's no way he can fold that," a tablemate asked Scarpelli after the hand.

"Set over set is one of the hardest things in poker," Scarpelli replied.
