Set Over Set for Tammel; Nitsche On Fumes
Level 6
: Blinds 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante
Andrei Streltsou raised from early position, and he was called by Dominik Nitsche to his left. Tarmo Tammel on the button chose to three-bet to 59,000. The blinds and Streltsou folded, but Nitsche made the call.
The dealer fanned a flop of A?Q?3? where Tammel continued for 30,000. Nitsche check-raised to 120,000, and Tammel made the call to find the 6? turn.
Nitsche bet 200,000, then Tammel took his biggest chips to raise. Nitsche moved all-in and Tammel called, being the player at risk for 395,000.
Tarmo Tammel: A?A? 
Dominik Nitsche: Q?Q?
Both players flopped a set, but Tammel had the best one. The 6? river gave a full house to both players, but Tammel kept the lead and doubled up.
