McInally Has the Mojo
Gerald McInally and Christopher Day saw the turn on a board of Q♦8♥7♥5♦ when McInally got his last 140,000 in from middle position. Day put him at risk in the big blind.
Day turned over 7♦6♠ for a pair and straight draw, while McInally had Q♥Q♣ for top set. The 6♦ river improved Day to two pair, but it wasn't enough to avoid handing over most of his stack.
"You stole my mojo," tablemate Michael Rosaman said to McInally, who leaned back and stood a few sips from his beer mug.
"When did you start drinking?" Kully Sidhu asked him.
"It helps me a lot," McInally replied.
At the same time at another table, Jamie Dwan was all in for 150,000 and up against Antonis Poulengeris.
Jamie Dwan: 7♥7♦
Antonis Poulengeris: Q♥Q♦
Dwan was crushed by Poulengeris' queens, but the flop brought 2♠10♦7♣ to give him a set. The rest of the board ran out 6♥J♥ and Dwan doubled up. Poulengeris was eliminated a few hands later.
