Two Pair for Macdonnell
Level 3
: Blinds 100/300, 300 ante
Vitezslav Cech opened to 700 from under the gun, but Marc Macdonnell to his left three-bet to 2,400. All the other players folded to Cech, who four-bet to 6,800. Macdonnell then went into the tank, and eventually called.
The dealer fanned a flop of J♣10♦9♦. Cech continued with a bet of 7,500, but Macdonnell raised all-in for 23,000. Cech seemed to have no choice but to call.
Marc Macdonnell: Q♦J♦
Vitezslav Cech: A♦A♠
Macdonnell had a straight flush draw on the flop, but the Q♣ on the turn was enough to give him two pair. So after the river 7♥, he doubled up, while Cech was down to 200 chips and eliminated moments later.
