Furey Finds a Double
Level 8
: Blinds 500/1,000, 1,000 ante
Action folded to Casey Hatmaker on the button, and he raised to 2,000. Once it folded to the big blind Charles Furey, he three-bet all in for 19,300. Hatmaker confirmed the count and made the call to put Furey at risk.
Charles Furey: 7♥7♣ 
Casey Hatmaker: K♥Q♦
Furey was ahead with his pocket sevens but would have to race for his tournament life. When the board ran out 6♥10♦4♠A♦3♥ the pocket sevens of Furey were still best to secure him the double up.
