McCracken Turns the Tide
Level 25
: Blinds 50,000/100,000, 100,000 ante
In the first hand of heads-up play, Eddie Northcraft opened to 300,000 and was then raised to 625,000 by William McCracken, which he called to see the flop of Q?2?K?.
McCracken led out for 500,000 and Northcraft made the call to see the 10? on the turn, which both players checked.
On the river 2?, McCracken moved all in for 3,275,000 and Northcrft went deep into the tank. After a solid minute, he made the call to put McCracken at risk but was shown A?2? for trip deuces on the river.
"Ughhh..." Northcraft sighed as he mucked his hand and set out the necessary chips to pay off McCracken in the big double-up to give him a 2-1 lead.
