Day 1F: Herrera Flops Set to Bust Big Slick

Written by Kirk | Dec 7, 2024 1:43:47 AM

Joshua Lien made it 60,000 to go preflop and Zachary Herrera called to see a flop of 8♥5♥K♦. 

Herrera checked to Lien, who continued for 50,000 and Herrera just called to go to the turn 6♠.

Herrera checked once more to Lien, who moved all in, only to be snap-called by Herrera. 

"I have ace-king," Lien announced and flipped over A♠K♠.

"I have a set, you're drawing dead," Herrera said matter-of-factly, and he wasn't wrong as he tabled 8♣8♦ or a flopped set of eights. 

The river was the inconsequential 3♥ and the pot was shipped to Herrera while Lien hit the rail. 

Herrera - 740,000
Lien - 0
