Thorel's Pair of Sevens are Good
Level 16
: Blinds 15,000/30,000, 30,000 ante
Jean-Noel Thorel raised 115,000 and Kayhan Mokri made the call.
The flop came Q?9?7?, and Mokri quickly checked. Thorel stacked up 10 green chips and splashed them across the line for a bet of 250,000. Mokri called.
The 5? hit the turn and Mokri quickly checked once again. Thorel took some time, eying Mokri's stack.
"About 900,000," Said Mokri.
After a few more seconds, Thorel tapped the table.
The 6? landed on the river, and both players checked. Mokri tabled 5?2?, missing his flush draw but making a pair of fives. Thorel rolled over A?7? to scoop the pot with a pair of sevens.
