Mike McClain (mid position) raises to 60k, James Van Alstyne (late position) calls, Randy Holland (button) calls, /X246//Frankie O’Dell/ (small blind), and Bernard Ko (big blind) calls.
The flop comes [9d7c2d].
O’Dell checks, Ko moves ALL-IN for 287k, McClain folds, Van Alystne folds, Holland calls, and O’Dell folds.
Ko shows [7s7h] for a set of 7’s.
Holland shows [9s9h] for a set of 9’s.
Are you kidding me!!! Set OVER Set this late in the tournament is a rarity.
The turn [5c] and river [Ac] did not help Ko.
Ko earns $39,930 for his 15th place finish.
