Esposito Flops a Set

Andras Koroknai opened to 505,000 in middle position, Michael Esposito called from the small blind, and the flop fell {8-Diamonds}{q-Hearts}{a-Diamonds}. Esposito quickly led for 600,000, and Koroknai called.

The turn was the suicide king ({k-Hearts}), and Esposito led again - this time for 1.1 million. Koroknai called.

The {10-Clubs} completed the board, and Esposito slowed down, checking to Koroknai who checked behind. Esposito rolled over {8-Clubs}{8-Spades} for a set of eights, and took down the pot.
