Sevens Deadly for Pilgrim

There were 2,175 chips in the pot when we walked up to a turned board of {8-Spades} {3-Hearts} {3-Diamonds} {4-Spades}. An unknown player led out into the pot for 1,500 before Dwyte Pilgrim shoved his 5,675 remaining chips into the pot. His opponent wasted no time calling to put Pilgrim to the test.

Showdown
Pilgrim: {7-Spades} {7-Hearts}
Opponent: {8-Clubs} {10-Clubs}

Pilgrim was drawing dead to one of the two remaining sevens, and the river {Q-Clubs} was most certainly not a seven. Unable to beat a pair of eights, Pilgrim has been sent home.
