McAllister on the Comeback Trail
Level 25
: Blinds 25,000/50,000, 50,000 ante
Lance Schuchard moved all in from the cutoff and Heath McAllister called on the button.
Lance Schuchard: A♦K♠
Heath McAllister: A♣Q♠
Schuchard had McAllister dominated, and the 8♦7♥7♠9♦3♥ board earned him the double up. McAllister had Schuchard's remaining 475,000 covered by just 15,000.
"This is where it begins," McAllister said as he put in his last chips the next hand. Damon Muehl then reraised on the button, and the rest of the table folded.
Heath McAllister: A♣8♦
Damon Muehl: 3♦3♥
McAllister remained behind going to the river on a board of Q♣6♥9♦5♥, but he spiked the 7♣ on the river to make a straight and let out a loud cry in celebration.
"The comeback!" he yelled.
