A One-Man Wrecking Ball

LoriPersinger

Level 27 : 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante

After Anthony Kazgandjian raised it up to 130,000 from early position, Graham Hiew then three-bet to 625,000. Action folded to Kainalu McCue-Unciano on the button and he made the call and Kazgandjian folded.

After Hiew checked to McCue-Unciano on the flop, McCue-Unciano then led out for 400,000, which was met with a check-shove from Hiew. McCue-Unciano asked the dealer to pull in the 400,000 so that he could see how much more it was to call. The dealer confirmed an additional 1,630,000, and after some thought McCue-Unciano made the call.

Graham Hiew:
Kainalu McCue-Unciano:

McCue-Unciano was behind, but that changed quickly when the dealer fanned the on the turn and the on the river, which gave McCue-Unciano the full house and eliminated yet another opponent. Also, worth noting is that McCue-Unciano also eliminated Jeremy Kramer from the tournament just a few hands later.
