Hess Doubles Through McDonald

James Hess opened for 75,000 from under-the-gun and Gary McDonald announced he was all-in from middle position. Action folded back around to Hess who called off his remaining 500,000.

Hess: {Q-Spades}{Q-Hearts}
McDonald: {A-Diamonds}{K-Hearts}

The board ran out {7-Hearts}{J-Spades}{3-Hearts}{10-Spades}{7-Diamonds}, doubling Hess up and crippling McDonald heading into the final two tables.
