Dileo Hits Miracle Runout

Level 17 : 4,000/8,000, 8,000 ante

Nicholas Dileo got the remainder of his chips all in on a flop of {q-Hearts}{7-Hearts}{6-Clubs}. Dileo had {q-Clubs}{8-Diamonds}, but was drawing thin against the {7-Spades}{7-Diamonds} of his opponent for a flopped set.

Needing a miracle to stay alive in the tournament, Dileo hit the {q-Diamonds} on the turn and the {q-Spades} on the river for runner-runner quads.

"Yes!" he yelled, raising his arms in the air. Dileo said that was the first time he had been all in during the tournament. He stopped to take a picture of the board before stacking up his new chips.
