Queens Are No Big Thing for McDonald
Level 12
: 6,000/12,000, 2,000 ante
Action folded to Team PokerStars Pro Andre Akkari on the button and he raised to 26,000, which Juha Helppi and Mike McDonald called from the small and big blinds respectively. All three players then checked the 
flop, and McDonald bet 40,000 after Helppi checked the 
turn. Akkari called, Helppi folded, and the 
completed the board on the river.
McDonald bet again, this time 150,000, and Akkari paid him off. McDonald rolled over the 
for flopped trips, and Akkari flashed pocket queens before sending them to the muck.
