Greenberg Goes Runner-Runner to Stay In It
Level 12
: Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante
Calvin Anderson raised to 4,000 from under the gun, and when it folded to Lawrence Greenberg in middle position, he three-bet all in for his stack of 37,500. It folded back to Anderson who made the call to put Greenberg at risk.
Lawrence Greenberg: A♦3♦ 
Calvin Anderson: 7♠7♦
Greenberg would need help to stay in the tournament, but the 7♥3♠5♠ flop gave Anderson a set of sevens, leaving Greenberg needing running cards. But the board ran out 2♣ on the turn, and 4♣ on the river to give Greenberg a wheel to take the pot and double up.
