Follow Along

The action on this gets a little confusing, so hang with me. OK? Here we go. A player in early position raised to 850. Chris McCormack called, as did another player. A player a few spots along raised to 4,400. The original raiser folded, and McCormack moved all in for 14,475. The player who'd just flat-called the original raise called McCormack's raise as well. And the guy who made that 4,400 reraise? Yeah, he folded. Got that? Good.

Anyway, McCormack turned over {A-Spades} {A-Clubs} to his opponent's {J-Hearts} {J-Diamonds}. The board ran out {10-Clubs} {3-Clubs} {4-Diamonds} {K-Spades} {2-Spades} and McCormack and his aces picked up a tidy pot that boosted his stack to 34,800.
