Set Not Enough For Kwaysser

Level 18 : 2,500/5,000, 500 ante

Valdemar Kwaysser somehow fell to just one big blind before the start of this hand and he went all in blind. Three players including Kwaysser saw the flop of {10-}{8-}{7-}. Tim Finne put out a big bet to push the other player out of the hand and he showed [10h10]. Kwaysser then turned over his cards one at a time. The first one was a {7-Clubs}, not a bad start, and the second one was a {7-Diamonds} for a lower set. Everyone at the table laughed at the dumb luck of Kwaysser, however his set wasn't enough as the board ran out {k-}{5-} and Kwaysser hit the rail in 43rd place.
