The Pipes Aren't Calling Fergal Nealon

Fergal Nealon recently caught a huge double-up to climb all the way to 350,000 in the counts. A player in early-position opened with a raise and Nealon looked down at {7-Diamonds}

-- a hand he says that all the lads back home in Ireland call the "Donegal Nuts". Nealon called the raise and was three-handed to a flop of {7-Spades}

. The pre-flop aggressor bet half the pot and only Nealon called.

The turn {8-Diamonds}

didn't improve Nealon's pair of sevens, but it did give him a flush draw. His opponent bet roughly 20,000, about pot, and again Nealon called. The river was Nealon's gin card, the {J-Diamonds}
