Semin Doubles Up

Level 13 : 1,500/3,000, 300 ante

Mikhail Semin was getting shorter but he just doubled his stack up when he scooped a pot. He got his money in with {6-Spades}{5-Diamonds}{4-Diamonds}{7-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{5-Hearts} and the {q-Clubs} he caught on seventh was useless.

His opponent quickly peeked at his seventh card but he quickly showed and mucked it and the dealer was even quicker mucking his seven cards and awarding the pot to Semin.
