McDonald Almost Gets it Out Of Chartier

Level 14 : 10,000/20,000, 3,000 ante
Mike McDonald
Mike McDonald

Action folded to Sam Chartier who opened the hand with a 40,000 min raise on the button and Mike McDonald called in the big blind.

The flop ran {Q-Diamonds} {3-Clubs} {7-Diamonds} and was checked by both players. The dealer then opened {5-Clubs} on the turn and McDonald lead for 62,000. Chartier tried to get a read on his opponent before making up his mind and finally decided to call.

The river card was {9-Hearts} and McDonald pushed a stack of 500,000 in front of him which was more than enough to put Chartier all-in. However, he wasn't ready for it just yet and mucked his hand.
