McDonald's Queens Hold Up
Level 22
: 8,000/16,000, 2,000 ante
Sitting out of position against the chip lead is never an easy spot to be in, but Stuart McDonald just made it a bit easier by doubling through him. McDonald raised to 33,000 from the button and Olekii Khoroshenin three-bet to 80,000 after which the Aussie moved all in.
Khoroshenin called.
McDonald: 
Khoroshenin: 
The board ran out 
and that gave McDonald a big double up. Khoroshenin wasn't hurt by it too much, as he still sits near the top of the counts.
