Gray Avoids Being the Bubble Boy
Action folded to Frederic Penel on the button and he raised to 2,200. A short-stacked Douglas Gray then moved all in from the small blind for 5,600, the big blind folded, and Penel made the call. Action was halted until the remaining tables completed their hands, and then the cards were turned up.

Gray was well out in front and looking to avoid a seven. That's exactly what he did as the board ran out 
. Gray breathed a big sigh of relief as he doubled to near the chip average.
