Level 22
: Blinds 8,000/16,000, 16,000 ante
Mark McDade moved all in for 372,000 in the big blind and Robert Boon put him at risk on the button.
Mark McDade: A♠K♣
Robert Boon: K♠J♦
McDade had Boon dominated and was a big favorite to double up as the flop came 9♣3♦2♦. The A♦ fell on the turn and a collective gasp arose from the table as Boon picked up a flush draw. McDade stood up from his seat, but the Q♥ river proved safe as he doubled up.
