Sevens Provide Very Different Fortunes to Bennett and Pitman

Level 15 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Two neighboring tables just saw players involved in large hands with pocket sevens. First, on Table 181, an all-in preflop situation saw Michael Bennett holding {7-Spades}{7-Clubs}, his last 100,000 or so over the line, called by big stack Brian Taylor with {a-Clubs}{10-Clubs}. The board ran out {2-Spades}{9-Spades}{4-Diamonds}{a-Spades}{j-Hearts} and that overcard spelled the end of the Big 50 for Bennett.

Over on Table 171, Shengjun Han had moved in on a flop of {6-Hearts}{7-Clubs}{8-Diamonds} for around 100,000, with 55,000 already in the pot. Opponent Bert Pitman asked for a count before calling with {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds}, his middle set holding against the straight draw of Han ({a-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}).
