McMullin Dodges the River to Double Through Levy
Level 28
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
Paul McMullin raised to 200,000 from the button and Marc Levy called from the big blind.
Levy check-called a continuation-bet from McMullin on the K♥J♦9♦ flop.
The 4♥ on the turn brought another check from Levy, and McMullin bet 350,000. Levy immediately check-jammed, covering McMullin, who called off his remaining 1,280,000 to put himself at risk.
Paul McMullin: Q♠Q♣
Marc Levy: K♦10♥
Both players held top pair and a straight draw, but after the 5♠ completed the board, McMullin's queen-kicker played to earn him the double-up through Levy.
