Fielder Gets There

On a {8-Hearts}{a-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{6-Diamonds} board, Jeff Fielder had 7,500 in front of the betting line facing two all-in's behind him. The all in of Peter Desantis was for about 13,500 more and the other about 12,500 more. Eventually he made the call to put the two players at risk.

Fielder: {7-Diamonds}{7-Spades}
Desantis: {k-Hearts}{j-Hearts}
Opponent: {a-Clubs}{k-Clubs}

While the other player in the hand was drawing dead, Fielder needed the board to pair in order to win the pot. The {6-Hearts} river did exactly that as he is now one of our early chip leaders. Disantis, on the other hand, was stunned.
