Set Over Set
There was a limp from under the gun, Isaac Haxton limped from middle position and Seth Davies called from the small blind. Anthony Zinno raised to 12,000 out of the big blind which only the under the gun player called.
Zinno checked the K♣J♦5♦ flop and faced a bet of 13,000 from his opponent. Zinno called, and they headed to the turn.
Zinno checked again on the 2♥ turn. Under the gun bet 24,000 and was met with a raise to 92,000 from Zinno. The under the gun player called.
Zinno bet 90,000 on the 9♥ river. His opponent shoved all-in for 183,000. Zinno went deep into the tank, using one of his time extensions. Eventually, he made the call.
Anthony Zinno: K♠K♥ 
Under the gun: 2♦2♠
Set over set in one of the very first hands of the tournament meant Zinno would double up, and his opponent would be left with just one big blind.
