George McDonald Bubbles the Unibet Open Malta Main Event

Level 15 : 3,000/6,000, 1,000 ante
George McDonald
George McDonald

At the feature table, George McDonald was all in preflop for 120,000 after Daniel Jacobsen had opened. Jacobson confirmed how much McDonald played before calling.

George McDonald: {J-Hearts}{J-Clubs}
Daniel Jacobsen: {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}

The {2-Diamonds}{9-Hearts}{8-Clubs} flop was safe for McDonald, but all that changed with the {A-Hearts} on the turn. The {5-Clubs} on the river wasn't one of the remaining jacks and McDonald became the final player to bow out. He didn't leave empty-handed, as Unibet Open's Kasia had a consolation prize in the form of bubbles for the Scot.
