McKeehen Finds the Call

Level 10 : Blinds 1,000/2,000, 2,000 ante

Ketan Pandya opened to 4,000 from early position. John McDonald flatted on his left, before James Calderaro and Joe McKeehen defended the small and big blind respectively.

Action checked through on the 8♠A♦Q♦ flop, and did the same on the 8♦ turn. The river Q♠ checked all the way to McDonald, who bet out for 12,500. Only McKeehen called, and his A♥2♥ won against the 5♠5♦ of his opponent.
