McNeil Spikes the River to KO Bojang
Level 9
: Blinds 1,000/1,500, 1,500 ante
Limits: 1,500-5,500
Calen McNeil opened to 3,000 in early position and Ismael Bojang defended his big blind.
On the K♠9♣2♣ flop, Bojang opted to lead for 3,500. McNeil inquired how much Bojang was playing before he asked for the rest and Bojang was all-in for 26,500.
Ismael Bojang: K♦J♦9♦7♠
Calen McNeil: A♥K♣5♠5♥
McNeil was in rough shape against Bojang's hand on the 6♣ turn. McNeil had just five outs to eliminate Bojang and many to chop, but he found the perfect A♠ on the river to make a better two pair and eliminate Bojang.
