Lisa Schuessler limped from early position before Jeffrey McMillen made it 1,000 on the button. Jonathan Wofford called out of the small blind, but the big blind was interested in playing a bigger pot when they three-bet to 7,000. Schuessler folded, but McMillen went for a four-bet and made it 15,000 to go in response. Wofford folded, but the big blind made the call.
The big blind checked the J♣3♣8♥ flop before McMillen went all-in for approximately 20,000. The big blind called and put himself at risk for less.

Jeffrey McMillen A♦A♠
McMillen had his opponent in dire straits as he needed to fade two queens to score the knockout early on Day 1a.
