Maguire Passes Up a Chance

Level 14 : 2,000/4,000, 500 ante

Dermot Blain made a standard raise to 8,000 on the button, Sergio Aido folded after some thought and Kyle Maguire raised to 30,000 from the big blind.

It took some time for “The ambassador.” as Maguire has taken to calling him, to make a decision, counting out the call and his remaining chips. Complicated equity decisions were no doubt being made at a high speed.

Blain declared that he was all in and the dealer threw him the triangle. It was Maguire’s turn to make some calculations of his own. “Pass.” He said eventually, perhaps deciding there would be better spots to come.

“What a grind eh?” Commented Maguire.

“Says the man with all the chips.” Blain shot back.
