McTaggart Plays the Margins

Level 19 : 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante

On table 22, one of six tables remaining in the Day 2 field, Paul McTaggart opened the cutoff to 25,000 with Peter Craw folding the button. Adam Maxwell counted and re-counted his stack before shoving all-in from the small blind for 320,000. McTaggart called somewhat hesitantly and rolled over his {10-Clubs}{10-Diamonds}.

Maxwell's {9-Spades}{9-Hearts} was in bad shape, and the {K-Clubs}{Q-Diamonds}{3-Spades} flop did nothing to improve his situation. The {A-Clubs} turn meant McTaggart only needed to dodge two outs going to the river. He didn't just dodge, though, he improved when the {10-Spades} landed.
