Tommi Horkko raised from the button and then Brock Parker reraised from the small blind. Horkko put in another raise and then Parker called. The flop came down {8-Spades} {7-Clubs} {4-Spades} and Parker check-raised Horkko. Horkko made the call.

The turn brought the {A-Diamonds} and Parker bet. Horkko raised and then Parker came back over the top with another raise. Horkko called.

The river was the {5-Hearts} and Parker bet. Horkko made the call. Parker tabled {7-Diamonds} {7-Clubs} for trip sevens and scooped the massive pot.

Horkko was left crippled, but did double up on the next hand to gain some chips back.

Daniel Negreanu raised and then Tommi Horkko reraised. Negreanu called. The flop came down {A-Diamonds} {10-Hearts} {4-Diamonds} and Negreanu check-called a bet from Horkko.

The turn paired the ten on board with the {10-Spades}. Negreanu bet, Horkko raised, Negreanu reraised, and then Horkko raised all in. Negreanu made the call with {K-Hearts} {10-Clubs}. Horkko was well behind with {A-Clubs} {8-Clubs}.

The river didn't summon an ace to the felt when the {J-Hearts} fell and that was it for Horkko. He went out in 3rd place, earning nearly $90,000 for his finish.
