Torre Cracks Aces to Eliminate Mcvay

Level 20 : 10,000/15,000, 10,000 ante
Bryce McVay
Bryce McVay

Bryce Mcvay moved all-in from an early position and was called by his neighbor, Giovani Torre.

The hands were tabled and it was the {a-Diamonds}{a-Clubs} held by the at-risk Mcvay who was ahead of the {a-Hearts}{9-Diamonds} held by Torre.

The dealer spread the flop of {j-Diamonds}{3-Hearts}{q-Spades}, which changed nothing.

The {8-Spades} turn card opened up a gutshot straight draw for Torre, but Mcvay's aces still led.

The river was the {10-Diamonds} and that was the gutshot out that Torre needed to complete his straight and take down the hand, which in turn eliminated Mcvay from the tournament.
