A Million Chips Pot
Level 19: 10000/20,000 (20,000)
Entries: 133/2045
Robert McAdam opened from the cutoff, and after a series of calls, they went to a flop of 2♦4♦8♣. Action checked to McAdam, who fired a 90,000 bet, which only Michael Broadhurst, his fellow Englishman, called.
The turn came 7♣, bringing two flush draws into play. Broadhurst checked again, and McAdam shoved for 367,000. With a little over 800,000 behind, Broadhurst went into the tank for nearly two minutes before finally calling.
- Robert McAdam: Q♣Q♥
- Michael Broadhurst: A♠8♠
Broadhurst was behind with top pair and needed help on the river. But the river 5♥ was no savior, leaving McAdam to scoop a nearly 500k gain, while Broadhurst found himself down by the same amount.
Robert McAdam – 1,100,000
Michael Broadhurst – 450,000
