Galino Doubles With Quads

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 100 ante

Jorge Galino and Helder Da Silva went at pre-flop when Galino opened to 2,500, and then called the raise of 6,000 from Da Silva. The flop of {6-Clubs}{7-Diamonds}{7-Spades} saw Da Silva move all-in and Galino called.

Jorge Galino: {J-Hearts}{7-Hearts}
Helder Da Silva: {A-Clubs}{9-Hearts}

The turn of {10-Spades} led to calls from Da Silva for a a "chop?" but the river came a {7-Clubs} meaning it was quad sevens to survive for Galino!

Da Silva, suddenly vocal and wishing to discuss how fortunate Galino had been, drops a little but remains ahead of his tablemate. You'd never know it.
