Gonzalez Finds a Big Double

Level 7 : 400/800, 800 ante

With a big pot growing in the middle and {7-Spades}{k-Clubs}{3-Clubs} on the board, Ricardo Gonzalez shoved his last 7,700 from the small blind.

Ricardo Gonzalez: {k-Spades}{6-Spades}
Mark Fretto: {7-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}

Fretto was ahead with the set of sevens, but {j-Spades} came on the turn to give Gonzalez the flush. The river {9-Clubs} didn't pair the board and Gonzalez secured the double. Fretto lost the hand but is building one of the bigger chip stacks in the room and is now over 100,000.
