McGinn Finds a Call For a Big Double Off Balcarcel
Level 26
: Blinds 5,000/10,000, 10,000 ante
With around 120,000 in the pot on a board of A♥2♠4♥4♣, Owen Balcarcel moved all in from under the gun as Brendan McGinn went deep into the tank from the cutoff. He took a few minutes before calling for his last 122,000.
Balcarcel showed J♥10♥ for a flush draw, while McGinn turned over K♥K♠. "I knew you had kings," tablemate Ronnie Smith told him, and McGinn held on through the A♦ river to earn the double up.
