Indeed he was behind, as Pattni revealed he had hit a seven-low on seventh street to scoop the pot, eliminating Clements in the process.

Action checked to Lauria, who bet on the 7♣J♥9♥ flop. Brindle raised, both Grapenthien and Argyros cold called, Lauria made it three bets to go, and everyone called.

The 7♠ paired the board on the turn and it was again checked to Lauria, who bet. Brindle again raised, Grapenthien and Argyros folded, and Lauria called.

Brindle led out for a bet on the 10♣ river and showed 9♦9♣ for a full house after Lauria called all in.

"Wow, how bad do I run in Limit Hold'em?" Lauria said as he turned over J♦9♠ for two pair before exiting the tournament area.
