Broadway Doubles McAleenan as Gayko Can't Find Fold
Level 37
: Blinds 400,000/800,000, 800,000 ante
Daryl McAleenan opened his button to 1,600,000. Oliver Gayko looked at his cards in the big blind and flicked in some calling chips.
McAleenan continued for 1,500,000 on the K♠10♦9♥ flop, and Gayko check-called. The A♣ turn was then checked by both players, after which the J♦ river completed the board.
Gayko led out for 3,500,000. McAleenan spent one of his time banks before moving all in for 9,300,000. Gayko took some time to think things through, but ultimately called off.
McAleenan tabled K♣Q♥ for the nuts, while Gayko showed 8♠7♣ for a lower straight. McAleenan doubled up to a healthy stack of over 30 big blinds.
