Graftekkel Nails a Set

Level 8 : 300/600, 70 ante

Netherland's Graftekkel is one of his country's most successful online players. While in the big blind, he recently defended a min-raise from an opponent in early position while holding pocket threes and managed to win a big pot to go over 50,000 in chips after he hit a set on a {3-Clubs}{8-Spades}{k-Diamonds}{10-Spades}{k-Spades} board. His opponent rebought into the tournament after he realized his pocket jacks were no good.
