Mendoza Busts McBrien in a Massive Pot
Level 13
: Blinds 1,000/2,500, 2,500 ante
Jason Mendoza bet 7,500 from early position on a flop of 10♦7♣9♦ and Daniel McBrien raised to 15,000 under the gun. Mendoza then moved all in and McBrien called for 130,000.
Daniel McBrien: 7♠6♠ 
Jason Mendoza: 7♥7♦
McBrien showed a pair and straight draw, but Mendoza was ahead with a set of sevens. The rest of the 2♥5♦ board missed McBrien and he was sent to the rail while Mendoza scooped the massive pot.
"He was getting short," a tablemate joked.
