Tim Carroll Can't Dodge Bullets

Action folded to Tim Carroll in middle position and he raised to 1,700. James Washer reraised to 4,000 from the big blind and Carroll made the call.

The flop came {7-Hearts} {7-Spades} {2-Clubs} and James bet 7,000, which was enough to put Carroll all in. Carroll made the call and the players showed:

Carroll: {Q-Spades} {Q-Diamonds}
Washer: {A-Hearts} {A-Diamonds}

The turn and river came the {7-Diamonds} and {J-Spades}, respectively, and Washer's rockets were best. He eliminated Carroll and took his stack to just over 100,000.
