Beware the Short Stacked Value Bet

Gabe Costner, Charles Wright, and Jeff Tims were involved in a hand to the river. On a board of {5-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{2-Clubs}{3-Clubs}{3-Diamonds}, Wright counted out his chips, looking like he was contemplating an all-in move. Wright counted out 22,000 in chips. He then proceeded to make a bet of 11,000. Tims tanked for a couple of minutes, apparently confused as to why Wright didn't push. Finally he called and Costner folded. Wright showed 7-7 for sevens full and then proceeded to tell everyone how he "value bet" the river.
