Wimsatt Doubles Through Kelsall

Level 13 : 1,000/2,500, 0 ante

Gregory Wimsatt opened with an all in raise of 7,500 from middle position and was called by Andrew Kelsall on the button.

Gregory Wimsatt: {a-Hearts}{q-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{2-Spades}
Andrew Kelsall: {a-Diamonds}{q-Diamonds}{3-Spades}{2-Diamonds}

Both players had very similar hands but Wimsatt was able to hit his seven on the {6-Spades}{4-Spades}{7-Clubs} flop.

Kelsall flopped a gutterball straight draw but couldn't get there as the board finished with the {4-Hearts} on the turn and the {8-Diamonds} on the river and Wimsatt doubled up with a pair of sevens.
