Aqel's Set Gets Maximum
The action began with a player in early position raising to 600 and Donathan Barfield three-bet next to act to 2,100 which everyone folded to except Ala Aqel on the button.
The flop fell 
and Barfield continued for 3,000 which Aqel called. The turn was the 
and Barfield didn't slow down, this time firing a bet of 7,000 which Aqel called once again.
The 
landed on the river and Barfield fired for the third time for 12,000 and Aqel wasted no time announcing all-in for 29,700. Barfield went into the tank for a long period of time and another player on the table called the clock. After about another 20 seconds Barfield splashed in the chips to call and both hands were tabled. Barfield showed 
for top pair top kicker and Aqel tabled 
for a set of fours to double through Barfield and leave him short.
