Set Over Set Gives Ng Victory
Level 12
: Blinds 2,000/3,000, 3,000 ante
A player in late position raised to 9,000 preflop. Brian Ng then raised to 27,000 from the hijack, causing the previously-limped other players to fold. The late position player then went all in for approximately 42,000, and Ng made a snap call.
Late Position: 9?9?
Brian Ng: J?J?
Ng fell behind on the 9?K?A? flop, but turned a straight draw when the 10? came. Ng did not need the straight, though, as the J? river gave him the higher set and sent his opponent out of the tournament area.
