James On . . . Mackoff
PLH
James Vanneman potted from middle position only to have Jonas Mackoff repot from the cutoff. Vanneman called off for 149,000 total and he discovered he was in a dominating spot.
Vanneman: 

Mackoff: 

Mackoff's camp began calling for a ten, but the 

flop did not supply their demand. When the
hit the turn, the chant for a ten suddenly turned to one calling for a jack. "How about a four or six," Mackoff said, clearly content with a chop.
Call for what they would, it made no difference as the
blanked. Vanneman survived to double while Mackoff was left with under 200K.
