7-7-7

There is no better spot to go all in in this tournament than preflop. And that's exactly what Russell Thomas and Eric Bolinder did. Thomas showed {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades} and Bolinder revealed {a-Spades}{10-Hearts} for a coin flip.

The flop came {5-Diamonds}{7-Clubs}{a-Clubs}. Bolinder hit his ace but, as the title revealed, Thomas hit a set of 7's. The turn and river ran dry for Bolinder and he was eliminated in 23rd place. Thomas' stack is now at 590,000.
