McMahon Coolers Keogh for Huge Profit

Level 25 : Blinds 30,000/60,000, 60,000 ante
Barry McMahon
Barry McMahon

Barry McMahon and Glenn Keogh were heads up on a board of 71062. A massive pot of 2,000,000 chips was already in the middle when Keogh bet 800,000 chips from the big blind, around half his stack.

McMahon responded by going all in with the covering stack, which sent Keogh into the tank. After asking if McMahon had flopped top set and not getting an answer, he put in the call for his tournament life.

Glenn Keogh: QQ
Barry McMahon: KK

McMahon did not have a set but did have the higher overpair. The 10 river could not save Keogh, and he left the tournament area after the dealer made sure he was covered.
