Mackey Forces a Fold

Level 9 : 500/1,000, 1,000 ante

James Mackey opened to 2,300 in middle position and the button player made the call.

The flop appeared {6-Clubs}{10-Clubs}{4-Spades} and Mackey continued for 3,000. His opponent tanked for a minute and made a re-raise for 9,000. Mackey chose to come over the top for 26,000 and that was enough to grab the pot without more resistance.
