McDonald Folds to Shove

Alexander Roumeliotis had opened preflop with Reza Mostafavi calling, as did Mike McDonald in the big blind to see an {A-Spades}{K-Diamonds}{7-Hearts} flop.

McDonald checked, Roumeliotis bet 1,600 which Mostafavi called, as did McDonald. All three players checked the {9-Hearts} turn before McDonald led out for 5,625 on the {10-Spades} river. Roumeliotis folded but Mostafavi simply moved all in for around 80,000 (although it was effectively 40,000 as that was the size of McDonald's remaining stack).

Timex let out a wry smile on his face, as did Martin Jacobson and Sorel Mizzi, after about a minute he folded but coerced Mostafavi into showing his cards - {Q-Diamonds}{J-Diamonds}.

"Thankyou," said the young Canadian, "I promise I'll show you a hand later."
