Level 7 : 300/600, 75 ante

A huge set up hand nearly cost Joseph Cristallo his tournament life. Instead, he's the new chip leader.

There was an early position raise to 2,100. The player behind bumped it to 5,500 and when it folded to Cristallo in the small blind, he looked down at two kings and shoved in.

Both players called, the first with two aces and the second with two queens. A king in the window gave Cristallo a set and with bricks on the rest of the board, he collected a more than 60,000 chip pot and moved up to the top of the counts.
