Level 14 : Blinds 1,500/3,000, 3,000 ante

Kevin Frame raised to 6,500 from the button and picked up a call before Thomas Page moved all in from the big blind. Frame called for around 100,000 chips and was the player at risk as the cards were turned.

Kevin Frame: A♥A♠
Thomas Page: 7♠7♦

"This doesn't look good for you," said Page.

The board ran out 5♠7♣K♣7♥A♦. Page hit a set of sevens on the flop and made quads on the turn. Frame did manage to make a full house on the river, but it only served to rub salt in the wounds.

Page won the pot and Frame was eliminated from the tournament.
