McGuiness Keeps Fighting

Bahador Ahmadi opened for a raise and John McGuiness made his standard three bet. Ylon Schwartz folded, Ahmadi made a fourth bet and McGuiness capped the action before a flop of {9-Diamonds}{J-Hearts}{K-Clubs}.

McGuiness bet again at the {6-Spades} on the turn, and Ahmadi decided not to come along.
