Stjernvang Sets Trap, Never Springs

Helge Stjernvang opened to 22,000 from the hijack seat, Sorel Mizzi three-bet to 52,000 on the button, and Stjernvang called.

The flop fell {4-Diamonds}{5-Clubs}{7-Hearts}, and Stjernvang checked. Mizzi fired 55,000, and Stjernvang called.

The turn was the {j-Spades}, both players checked, and the river was the {6-Clubs}. Both players checked again. Stjernvang tabled {4-Clubs}{4-Spades} for a set of fours, and Mizzi mucked his hand.
