Michael "Timex" McDonald has been playing patient poker today and hasn't been involved in too many pots. He take a recent pot down that was worth about 20,000 chips. He opened for 2,600 from the button, then called a reraise to 6,400 that was made by the small blind. The small blind led out for 5,000 on a flop of {10-Spades}

{10-Spades}

{6-Clubs}

{7-Diamonds}

. McDonald called that bet, then took over the betting lead himself by making it 9,000 to go after the small blind checked the {8-Clubs}

{8-Clubs}

turn.

The small blind called that bet, taking the two players to the {10-Hearts}

{10-Hearts}

river. They both checked. McDonald was the last aggressor and therefore opened first, showing {A-Hearts}

{A-Hearts}

{7-Hearts}

for two pair, tens and sevens. It was good.
