Lucky Sevens for Loube

"Reporter, get over here!"

So said Steven Loube after improbably coming back to win a hand and knock out Darin Thomas.

Thomas had already left with his ticket to the cashier's desk, while Loube and the others explained how with the board showing {7-Hearts}{9-Clubs}{8-Spades}, all of Thomas's stack had gone in with {A-Hearts}{10-Clubs}{6-Clubs}{2-Diamonds} (ten-high straight) against Loube's {A-Spades}{A-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{5-Hearts} (a pair of aces).

That's when the {7-Clubs} and {7-Diamonds} came on the turn and river, giving Loube a full house and sending Thomas to the rail. "That's how I'm running," said Loube, who shoots up over 215,000 on that one.
