First Major Showdown

First Major Showdown

An early double for Gary McCoy who called all in for 250,000 when small blind Michael O’Neill put the bigger stack jam pressure on him. O’Neill had eight high, but his cards were live:

O’Neill: 6c 8d
McCoy: As Tc

The door card paired O’Neill’s six, but the As was on its heels and we all know the pair hierarchy.

McCoy – 530,000
O’Neill – 440,000
