McMahon Doubles Through Brosnahan
Level 29
: Blinds 80,000/160,000, 160,000 ante
Barry McMahon opened to 700,000 from the button leaving himself with only 140,000 behind. Denis Brosnahan moved all in from the big blind, covering McMahon.
On the final table bubble, and with it appearing another significant hand was developing on the other table, McMahon stalled making his decision.
He eventually put the rest of his chips in the middle and was at risk.
Barry McMahon: J♥3♥
Denis Brosnahan: A♠3♣
Brosnahan was ahead but the K♦4♣J♠K♣J♣ runout provided McMahon with a set of jacks and survival.
