Sevens Lucky for Robl but Spades a Real Problem

Andrew Robl is up to a quiet 39,000 after taking down a recent pot with trip sevens. There was a raise pre-flop to 900 that Robl, sitting in position, called. His opponent checed a {j-Diamonds}{9-Clubs}{7-Clubs} flop to Robl. She then called 1,300 after Robl bet. When the turn paired the board {7-Hearts}, she tried a bet of 2,000 that Robl called. That took both players to the {a-Clubs} river. Robl's opponent checked and called 3,000. That's when Robl turned up {7-Diamonds}{8-Diamonds} to take down the pot with trip sevens.

However, a few hands later Robl gave all the chips back by raising all in on the turn of a {a-Spades}{9-Hearts}{5-Spades}{6-Spades} board. The same opponent snap-called with the nuts, {k-Spades}{q-Spades}, leaving Robl's top pair {a-}{j-} in bad shape. The board blanked out {8-Diamonds} to put Robl right back where he started.
