MacDonald Makes Her Mark
A player in middle position limped in, as did Alyssa MacDonald from the cutoff. Jeff Cormier raised it up to 525 on the button and got calls from the middle-position player as well as MacDonald.
The flop came 
and action checked to Cormier who bet 775. The player in middle position folded and MacDonald called.
The turn was the 
and MacDonald checked yet again. Cormier bet 2,100 this time. MacDonald paused for a moment and then put in a check-raise to 5,500. Cormier shifted in his seat, clearly unsure of what to do, and eventually quickly flashed an ace before mucking his cards.
Cormier tried to get some information out of MacDonald, but she wasn't giving anything up.
MacDonald recently took down the $330 No Limit Hold'em 6-Max Bounty tournament for $7,500 here at the World Cup of Cards and has been playing every single day, clearly a force on the felt.
