McDonald with the River Overbet
Level 12
: 800/1,600, 200 ante
Mike McDonald raised to 3,500 pre-flop and was three-bet by Mikhail Petrov to 8,000. McDonald made the call and together they saw a 
flop. McDonald check-called a bet of 8,400 and then the 
was dealt on the turn. Both players checked. The river was the 
and McDonald lead for 55,000 into a pot of around 37,000.
Petrov tanked for a few minutes before calling. McDonald tabled 
and Petrov shook his head as he openly mucked 
. With that hand McDonald boosted his chip stack in the final hand before the break.
