Yeah, J7s is the NUTZ

UTG+1 (t1500)
Cardgrrl (MP1) (t1500)

Preflop: Cardgrrl is MP1 with K, K
1 fold, UTG+1 calls t40, Cardgrrl bets t200, 2 folds, CO calls t200, 4 folds

Flop: (t500) 4, 8, 10 (2 players)
Cardgrrl bets t500, CO calls t500

Turn: (t1500) 9 (2 players)
Cardgrrl bets t800 (All-In), CO calls t260 (All-In)

Results:
Cardgrrl had K, K (two pair, Kings and fours).

Okay, maybe I shouldn't have pushed the turn. But he called a big raise preflop and then called off most of his stack on the flop with a gutshot straight draw!
