Belcher Soft Bubbles
Level 13
: Blinds 10,000/25,000, 25,000 ante
Matthew Belcher raised in early position to 50,000 but met resistance in the form of Josh McCully, who three-bet from the big blind to 165,000. Belcher took a moment to consider all his options, electing to move all in for 550,000. McCully called, and it was Belcher at risk.
Matthew Belcher: Q♠Q♥
Josh McCully: A♦K♠
Service was immediate for McCully on the 5♣A♠9♥ flop. Belcher had two outs to save his tournament life, but on this occasion, it wasn't to be.
The turn 4♣ and river 8♣ sealed his fate and he headed to the exit.
