Dilday Flops a Set at the Right Time
A player was all in from early position for 18,800 with Laurence Dilday, Jason Nguyen, and a third player all having already had committed 5,900 from middle position, the hijack, and the cutoff, respectively.
Dilday called the all-in shove, as did the cutoff with Nguyen folding in between the two, for future action to go into a side pot.
The flop came 
and Dilday went all in for his last 19,100. The cutoff called.
Early-Position Player: 
Laurence Dilday: 
Cutoff: 
Dilday had found himself in position to earn a knockout and more than a double after having gotten his stack in with top set, needing to fade straight outs from the shortest stack and running outs from the cutoff in order to scoop all the chips. The turn 
and river 
provided a clean runout to earn Dilday both pots, bringing him to a six-figure stack as the end of the night draws near.
