McCorkell Continues to Rise
Level 19
: 4,000/8,000, 1,000 ante
Breixo Gonzalez opened to 16,000 from late position and Robert Davies called in the hijack. Craig McCorkell made the call from the button and Joseph Townsend called in the big blind.
The action checked to McCorkell on the 
flop and he made it 33,000 to see a turn card. Only Davies called, meaning it was heads-up to the 
turn. Davies checked, McCorkell bet 87,000 and Davies called. The river was the 
and Davies checked again. McCorkell bet big, 221,000, leaving himself 130,000 behind. Davies had seen enough and folded, leaving McCorkell to climb to 655,000.
