Level 19
: Blinds 6,000/12,000, 12,000 ante
Michael McNicholas checked the A♥5♥4♣ flop from early position, and John McDonald bet 40,000 on his left. McNicholas spent some time before check-raising to 135,000.
McDonald called, and McNicholas checked again on the 8♦ turn. McDonald bet 100,000, with McNicholas taking a couple of minutes before sliding in a call.
One last check from McNicholas followed the J♣ river, and McDonald slid 190,000 into the middle while leaving just 10,000 behind.
McNicholas took some more time, opting to let his hand go and McDonald took down the pot.
