At another table, Jeffrey Dolezal was all in with a flush draw against Charles Furey's set of sevens, but he couldn't improve as Furey took down the massive pot worth more than 100,000. Dolezal quickly headed to the registration desk for a fresh starting stack.
Charles Furey raised to 2,800 under the gun and Duane Mitchell called on the button.
Furey checked the K♠3♣7♣ flop, and Mitchell bet 1,700. Furey called to see the 2♥ turn, where Mitchell bet 3,000. Furey again called.
The river was the 4♦ and Furey led out for 4,000. Mitchell folded, and Furey took the pot.
