Macdonald Thriving; Le Doubles Through Rasmussen
Level 18
: 5,000/10,000, 1,000 ante
On the turn of a heads-up pot between Thomas Macdonald and his opponent on the button, both players invested 80,000 each with the board showing 
and Macdonald then checked the 
on the river. His opponent checked behind and Macdonald rolled over 
for a full house to claim the pot.
Nghia Le ended up all in and at risk for 301,000 on the 
flop and Jacob Ramussen looked him up with the 
for top pair. Le had flopped the nut flush with 
and got the check mark for the double as soon as the 
appeared on the turn. The 
river was a mere formality.
