Ray LaRouech

Ray LaRouech potted it preflop with the {k-}{k-}{q-}{7-} double suited.

Dennis Fleig looked him up and when LaRouech flopped two pair queens and sevens he got the rest of his 50,000 chips in the middle.

Fleig called with a flush draw, wrap and a pair. He turned the flush to leave just six players remaining.
