: 800/1,600, 200 ante
Paul Mclean is pushing closer to 300,000 in chips now after defending his big blind to perfection.
The hand started with a 4,000-chip open from Adam Foster that was called by the small blind and McLean in the big. The flop fell 
and when the small blind led for 6,000, McLean called.
Foster headed for the hills and after a 
turn, the small blind led out again, making it 15,000. McLean did not go away and when the small blind checked the 
river, he fired in a 20,000-chip bet of his own.
The small blind called with 
, having rivered a straight, but McLean turned over 
and dragged the pot with a flush.
