Lucky Sevens Lead to Yau Triple

Level 11
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
There was a three-way all in at Table 7 with Franck Yau being the shortest stack, while Aurelien Russo had both him and Cosmin-Ionut Nica covered.
Franck Yau:
Cosmin-Ionut Nica:
Aurelien Russo:
"I'm live!" Yau cheered when he saw he could hit a seven.
Yau's optimism was warranted as the flop landed to give him the lead, though Russo picked up a flush draw. The
on the turn didn't change too much and the
on the river gave Yau a full house to triple.
The double-paired board also meant a split pot between Nica and Russo, something the latter didn't look too happy about.
"See? Lucky game!" Yau told the dealer.
