Marrero Flops a Set and Doubles Up
Level 12
: Blinds 1,500/2,500, 2,500 ante
Action was picked up with Kevin Marrero all in for 30,300, and Ziad Yaghnam in the cutoff putting him at risk.
Kevin Marrero: 7?7? 
Ziad Yaghnam: A?K?
Marrero was ahead with his pocket sevens, but it was a flip for his tournament life against the ace-king of Yaghnam. But after the flop came 7?K?3? Marrero flopped a set, and left Yaghnam needing running cards. But after the J? on the turn, Yaghnam was left drawing dead. The 10? on the river officially gave Marrero the double up with his set of sevens.
