McMahon Moves On, Maimone Moves Up

Nick Maimone open-raised to 40,000 from under the gun, and Billy McMahon reraised all in for 491,000 from the hijack seat. It folded back to Matt Affleck in the big blind who tanked for a while, then let it go. Maimone wasted no time making the call.

Maimone showed {A-Clubs}{A-Hearts}, and McMahon {A-Diamonds}{K-Clubs}. After the hands were shown, Affleck said he'd folded pocket nines.

The flop came {J-Clubs}{J-Spades}{9-Spades} (Affleck would've flopped a full house, had he stayed). The turn was the {7-Clubs} and the river the {6-Clubs}, and McMahon is out in 169th place, earning $36,626 for his efforts.

Maimone is up to 1.392 million now.
