McDonald's Kicker Plays

Level 9 : 600/1,200, 200 ante

Salman Behbehani opened for 2,500 in the cutoff, and Mike McDonald defended his big blind. McDonald check-called 3,200 on the {4-Hearts}{q-Clubs}{a-Clubs} flop, and he checked the {2-Diamonds} turn. Behbehani checked back, and the river was a {6-Spades}. McDonald announced a bet of 8,000, and Behbehani immediately called.

McDonald showed {a-Hearts}{5-Clubs}, and Behbehani flipped over {a-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}. At first glance, it looked like a chop, but McDonald's kicker played while Behbehani played the four.
