Matt Affleck moved all in from under the gun for 3,925,000, and next in line, Erkut Yilmaz called.

Affleck was at risk with {7-Hearts}{7-Spades}, and Yilmaz tabled {a-Diamonds}{a-Spades}.

“Seven from heaven!” Affleck’s supporters called from the rail.

The board ran out {7-Diamonds}{6-Clubs}{k-Clubs}{5-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}, and there it was on the flop to deliver Affleck a double-up and keep play 10-handed.
