James Mackey

James Mackey raised from early positoin and a player in middle position called. The player in the hijack moved all in for about 9,500 and action folded back to Mackey.

He put in enough to make a large raise and the third player in the hand folded. Mackey showed AcJd and was flipping against the hijack’s TdTh.

The flop was Ah9s7c and Mackey flopped top pair to take the lead.

The turn was the 3s and the river was the 2s. Mackey won the pot and eliminated his opponent.

James Mackey – 67,500
