McCarroll On the Winning End of a Massive Cooler

Level 2 : 100/100, 100 ante
Keith McCarroll
Keith McCarroll

With more than 15,000 already in the pot, Keith McCarroll checked from the big blind, on the river of a {j-Clubs}{10-Spades}{10-Clubs}{8-Clubs}{4-Clubs} board.

McCarroll's opponent, in middle position, put out a pot-sized bet to 15,500. McCarroll check-raised all in, and his opponent snap called.

McCarroll turned over {j-Hearts}{j-Spades} for top full house, and his stunned opponent hesitated for a few moments before tabling his own full house with {j-Diamonds}{10-Diamonds}. McCarroll moved up to nearly double the starting stack in the aftermath, while his opponent was left with around 4,000 chips.
