Actually it is the way its played. In Gardena CA casinos anyways.
The quads would constitute 4 cards and the 7 (since it's higher than any other card on the board not already being played) becomes the kicker.
So, in actuality, both hole cards
are playing for the 5 card hand.
Now I know every casino sets their own rules, but in Southern CA many card casinos have that ruling.
