John Gordon

Dan Colman raised from middle position and John Gordon moved all in on the button for about 1,100,000. James Mackey called out of the big blind and Colman folded.

It was a race with Mackey’s TdTs against Gordon’s AcQs. The flop was AhQc8d and Gordon flopped top two pair to take the lead in the hand.

“That’s a good start,” joked Darryll Fish.

The turn was the 2c and the river was the Jd. Gordon won the pot with two pair and doubled up.

John Gordon – 2,400,000 (40 bb)
James Mackey – 1,050,000 (17 bb)
