Smith Ousts Watkinson

After some preflop betting, Lee Watkinson had all of his remaining 15,000 in the middle against Gavin Smith. Smith showed {A-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{A-Spades}, and Watkinson {K-Diamonds}{K-Spades}{8-Hearts}{5-Clubs}.

Those aces were nice in Smith's hand. But the sevens proved more valuable, as the board came {7-Hearts}{6-Hearts}{7-Spades}{9-Clubs}{3-Spades}. Smith is up to 160,000.
