McCracken Scoops a Goofy One Early
Level 14
: 3,000/6,000, 6,000 ante
Nick Barksdale opened the hijack to 15,000 before Paul Thompson three-bet to 45,000 on the button. In the small blind, William McCracken cold-called while Barksdale got out of the way.
On the A♣6♠2♦ flop, McCracken check-called a bet of 27,000.
The turn brought the 6♦. McCracken opted to lead all-in for 105,000. Thompson, with the slightly covering stack, would take almost two minutes before releasing his cards into the muck.
