Come Back, Chau!

Chau Giang was out of his seat, cursing in several languages after he raised an opponent all in on the turn of a {3-Clubs} {8-Spades} {7-Diamonds} {Q-Diamonds} board, only to be called. Giang made top two pair with {A-Clubs} {Q-Clubs} {8-Hearts} {5-Diamonds}, but his opponent had flopped middle set with {10-Spades} {9-Clubs} {7-Spades} {7-Hearts}. Giang angrily grabbed his belongings and started to walk away from the table.

"Come back, Chau!" shouted Humberto Brenes, when the river fell {8-Diamonds}. Giang hit a miracle card to make eights full of queens, just barely better than his opponent's sevens full of eights. He remains alive with 68,000 chips.
