Kings and Axes

After a preflop raise to 6,000, Mike Souza and two other players called before the small blind moved all in for about 25,000 total. The rest of the table passed, but Mike Souza made the call from the button.

He tabled {A-Spades} {K-Clubs} to lead his opponent's {7-Diamonds} {6-Clubs} . The flop brought another seven for the at-risk player, but it also contained two kings. In the end, the board ran out {7-Clubs} {K-Hearts} {K-Diamonds} {8-Diamonds} {7-Hearts} to lock up the pot for Souza and send yet another player to the payout desk.

Souza's now sitting on a stack of 125,000.
