McLean Scores Triple Up; Culligan Eliminates Mazilu
Level 15
: Blinds 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
After being left with crumbs in the previous hand, Allen McLean moved all in from early position for 9,000. Douglas Culligan three-bet to 20,000, before Mihal Mazilu moved all in for 97,000. Culligan quickly called and covered both players.
Allen McLean: A♥K♥
Mihal Mazilu: Q♦Q♠
Douglas Culligan: A♠A♣
Culligan's aces were in great shape versus the queens of Mazilu and ace-king of McLean and continued to be so after the K♦8♦2♥ flop.
However the 4♥ turn brought McLean a flush draw, and the 8♥ rolled off on the river to secure McLean the triple up with the nut flush. Culligan won the significant side pot, sending Mazilu to the rail.
