Tough Sweat for Mclaughlin

Massimiliano Martinez opened for 40,000 on the button and Marc Mclaughlin raised to 95,000 from the small blind. Once the big blind folded Martinez moved all in and Mclaughlin called.

The flipped their hands over and Martinez had {A-Spades} {K-Hearts} and Mclaughlin had {10-Spades} {10-Diamonds}. The dealer announced all in and call, but ESPN producers didn't have a camera crew in the area. The dealer was told to wait while other hands finished before running the board. Once they arrived a few more ticks on the clock went by until they were ready to shoot the hand.

The board ran {5-Spades} {3-Spades} {4-Hearts} {2-Spades} {10-Hearts} and Martinez earned a double up with his straight.
