Boxell hits runner-runner to stay alive

We caught the action on the flop of {7-Clubs}

{7-Clubs}

{2-Clubs}

{3-Spades}

as Nali ‘Iraqi Nick’ Kaselias checked over to Leo Boxell, who made it 1,600 to go. Kaselias check-raised to 4,000 and Boxell moved all in for his tournament life. Kaselias couldn't call fast enough, tabling {3-Diamonds}

{3-Diamonds}

{3-Hearts}

for bottom set while Boxell flipped over his {7-Spades}

{7-Spades}

{5-Diamonds}

for top pair.

Kaselias would be left dumb-founded when he saw the turn and river fall the {7-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

and

{5-Hearts}

to give Boxell a full house. He managed to stay alive and now sits with 24,000 in chips as Kaselias slipped to 9,000.
