As everyone was filing out of the room to take a break, a big hand was brewing on Table 1. When we arrived, there was about 15,000 in the middle on a flop of {8-Spades}{10-Diamonds}{7-Spades}, and Sean Wallace had a bet of 12,000 in front of him. Anthony Conte moved all in for 57,000, and James Woods was in the tank.

"There's so much in the pot," Woods grumbled. "S***!"

He eventually cold-called, and Wallace folded.

Conte showed {7-Clubs}{7-Diamonds} for a flopped set of sevens, and Woods wanted to muck.

"I can't win," he sighed, showing {10-Hearts}{2-Spades}.

Woods wasn't drawing dead though - running cards could give him a full house, or if the turn and river put a straight on board the duo would chop the pot - and the turn was a repeat ten; the {10-Clubs}. Conte filled up, making sevens full of tens, but any eight or deuce on the river would give Woods a superior full house.

The {9-Spades} on the river was a brick, however, and Conte shipped a massive pot. Woods fell to around 30,000 chips.
