Marc MacDonnell defended his big blind from a raise to 75,000 by Maria Ho in the cutoff. He check-shipped for 355,000 after she bet 50,000 on a {7-Clubs}{9-Spades}{j-Spades} flop. Ho snap-called since she had {10-Spades}{8-Clubs} for the straight.

"It's a chop," MacDonnell said calmly, throwing {j-Diamonds}{10-Hearts} in the middle.

The {7-Diamonds} turn gave him some more outs but he still insisted it was a chop. He was right: the {8-Spades} hit the river.
