A Nutcracker
On one of the last hands of Level 7, Robert Marchi opened to 825 from under the gun. A player three-bet to 2,300 from middle position, and Robert "The Raven" Theobald cold-called from the big blind. Marchi called as well, and the flop came 
.
Theobald led out for 2,500, Marchi raised to 6,175, and the three-bettor folded. Theobald tanked for quite some time before moving all in for around 25,000, and Marchi snapped him off.

Marchi flopped the stone-cold nuts, but the 
ripped off on the turn, giving Theobald a full house. The 
completed the board, and Theobald successfully doubled to around 60,000 chips.
Marchi slipped to around 12,000.
