Level 29 : 60,000/120,000, 120,000 ante

Rafael Reis was all in, with less than one big blind in a hand against Darrin Gerr. Reis held Q♦7♣, while Gerr had A♦J♥. The board ran out 5♣K♠5♥7♦3♣ and Reis' pair of sevens kept his tournament hopes alive.

That was until the very next hand where Reis moved all in again from under the gun, and Gerr called.

Rafael Reis: Q♣5♠ All in
Darrin Gerr: K♥9♦

The flop came 10♥6♦4♦, with Gerr still in the lead. The turn fell the Q♦, pairing Reis' queen. The J♠ river brought in a straight for Gerr, who scooped the pot and sent Reis to the rail.
